I am very worried i have Lupus and had a Chest CT 3 weeks ago the Breast Clinic phoned me today for an urgent referall for 2nd July i was refered by my rhumatoloigist
I am sorry to hear you have lupus and are now needing to go to the breast unit following a CT scan, this understandably is a worry for you.
Unfortunately no one here can say what might be going on and it is only going to be further tests that will be able to confirm what is or isn't going on.
Sometimes an abnormality can be picked up on imaging scans. This doesn't automatically mean someone has a cancer but often needs checking out with further tests to be sure nothing serious is going on.
I hope you know more soon but try not to over think things for now.
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.
