I know it's a soap, but I'm emotional in that I'm glad that it's good news - love the girl!

Yeh, and her kiss with Marcus is quite a turn up for the books! She looks so much more relaxed with him than with Jason.

When I saw the title of the thread I thought the mumbler was leaving! Of course got seen within days and got the results on the spot, very real life! - NOT. This rather serious subject was not seen through but just used as a plot device for an affair with her gay friend.

I do love Maria and think that Samia Ghadie gets unfairly criticised.

The storyline was just a plot device for the Maria and Marcus relationship.

When I had a lump in my breast I went to my GP and they referred me to the hospital for tests. When I got home from the GP there was a message on my answer phone from the hospital with a date for the tests which was two days later - it was just a few of days before Christmas and they said they didnt want me worrying over the holidays. They did a mammogram and an scan, then a fine needle aspiration. They weren't totally sure so wanted a cone biopsy which was done the same day. I didn't get the results of that until after Christmas so that was a bit of a downer but the results, which were good, came back before New Year. I don't know if my hospital is the exception but I didn't think Maria's case was much different to mine.

Yes, it was a plot device but they have already done a breast cancer story with Sally so I suspected that this was unlikely to ever be a long term major story. I think it also may remind women to check and if they do find something suspicious to get it seen to asap as you do find out the results very quickly.

Glad you are fine and good of you to share your experience.

Shows that not everything that the soaps do is completely done too quickly and unrealistically.
