Breast Biopsy

Hi

I went for a breast MRI a couple of weeks ago. I contacted my Consultant last week for the results and he has suggested I go for an ultrasound guided biopsy on my left breast and axilla. Not sure what it means or what it involves or if it's serious and something I should be worried about. They said they would contact me to discuss the results in 3/4 weeks. Not sure what timescales are for something like this but it seems a long time. I originally went to my GP at the beginning of March, it will be nearly 2 months when I go for my appointment to discuss the results. I feel like I'm still no further forward. I just want to know one way or the other.

  • Hello, and thanks for posting.

    I can understand your frustration at being 2 months in and not feeling like you know anything, but unfortunately it is only your hospital team who are going to be able to tell you if this is anything to worry about it. It may be that they aren't clear yet and so need to do the further investigations to work it out, but they need to talk that through with you. I would suggest you give them another call to ask them what their thoughts are.

    Take care Tootsweet74, and I hope you know more soon. 

    Sarah.
