I’m so sorry that you’re in this situation and it’s completely natural to feel worried about the practical side of things. Tell your nurse how you feel quite honestly at the beginning and they will understand and take care of you. 
All the best fod a good result

Hello Immyk and thanks for posting

I am sorry to hear you are needing to go to the breast unit and understand this must be worrying for you.

As others have said on here the nurses and staff working in these units will try and keep you as covered as possible when they assess you and carry out any tests.

Do ask if you can take someone to support you if you think this would help. Let them know your concerns when you arrive and I am sure they will do all they can to help you through this and to make sure you don't feel exposed or vulnerable.

Please get back to us if you need any more information or support.  You may find it helpful to talk things through with one of the nurses on our helpline.  The number to call is Freephone 0808 800 4040 and the lines are open from 9am till 5pm Monday to Friday.

Take care,

Naomi
