Quick bit of background- I’m 36 in the UK, have a fault of change on my BRCA but neither sitting pos/neg on the guidelines.
Some family history of BreastCancer.
Had a fibroadenoma on right breast removed 2017.
End feb this year swollen breast on the left side of left breast , Ultrasound scan showed left side 4oclock likely small FA and cyst no further investigations.
And unknown to me also a small Likey FA deep central just picked up on Ultrasound but not mentioned.
I went back with a lump I could feel on and ended up with Ultrasound, mammograms and biopsies with a clip added.
Ultrasound tec mentioned looks possibly like a phyllodes (I wasn’t aware of what that was) due to the growth, density and lobular look… I looked at it on screen looks like a wobbly piece of popcorn…
So below is the findings so far,,,, I’m waiting the lab results now from the biopsy’s…
But if phyllodes are so rare is it not strange it was mentioned in person & in letter if it’s not looking like it??
??
At the area of clinical concern there is a 15x14mm lobulated solid mass; differential diagnosis could be a fibroadenoma / phyllodes and a possibility of malignancy cannot be excluded because of the family history, reported as U3.
Mammogram was carried out today and has picked-up an 18mm lobulated mass in her left breast reported as M3.
consultant at the end of the appointment said likely be nothing and in that case he would just give me a call.
I've now had an appointment to go, originally it was Monday & then another text and digital letter saying it had now changed and listed a different consultant surgeon.
im obviously suffering with waiting anxiety, but something feels different this time from the last one when it was an FA
