I went to hospital today after being referred from doctor for what I feared was Pagets disease. This was found to be not the case. However, I was sent for a mammogram and then a second more in-depth mammogram followed by an untradound. They found calcification on one breast and told me to go for a biopsy next week and then it would take around 3 weeks for the result. I am terrified. I'm sitting here shaking with fear at what this might mean for me. How I will get through the next month I don't know. The thought of BC terrifies me. I assumed it it was cancer I would have a lumpectomy but reading google people are talking about mastectomy. Can anyone advise me. I am 70 years old but I've got so much to live for.
