Hi 

I was diagnosed with triple negative right side breast cancer multi focal in June 2022. I had mastectomy with reconstruction august 2022, chemo from October 2022 through to January 23, then a blast of radiotherapy in February 23. I then had a routine ct scan in June 23 to check to see if the cancer had Metastasized. On this routine ct a large mass was found in my presacral space behind my rectum… I was referred to Leeds hospital as my local hospital didn’t specialise in this field… I waited until November 23 to have this removed; it was a fight from June until November to get a date for my operation.. then I ended up having emergency surgery on my right breast just before Christmas 23. I’m slowly on my road to recovery after that.

ive been having pain in my left breast (non cancer side) sore nipple sharp pains and a few little lumps I was concerned about which started beginning of Feb this year; I told my breast nurse she said to keep an eye on it so I did. It got slightly worse and the lumps and tenderness was becoming more noticeable; she referred me to our local breast clinic which I attended on Friday 8th March.. I ended up having to have a biopsy on a lump they could see on the ultrasound they carried out. 

my regular consultant was also there on Friday; he wanted the biopsy doing as did the sonogropher..

they both said they are 90% sure it’s a fibroadenoma however I am so worried and concerned about the other 10%… I know they see these things on mammograms and ultrasounds everyday so they know what they are looking at but yet still my health anxiety is taking me down thoughts of a somewhat dark path and I hate it; they said results 7-10 days; seems like such a long time to wait!!!

has anyone else experienced this please? If so what advice can you give me.. I’m so worried it’s come along and decided to visit my left breast but as I well know I can’t control the outcome

thank you
