Secondary breast assessment.

I’m 54 and just had second mammogram and once again asked to come for second assessment . Last time after ultrasound nothing bad was found but more worried this time as only 4 percent of women recalled and this is my second time.

  • It is undoubtedly a concerning time for you but I'm sure you know that most recalls do not result in a cancer diagnosis.  It's the not knowing and waiting for results  has been the worst part of the process for mebso I sympathise 

    Worse case scenario,there ils a cancer diagnosis at the end of it for yot know thatmy experience of cancer has not been as bad as my darkest fears....It's been really tough at times but there have also been times that haven't been as bad . It's amazing what we can cope with as human beings!! And some of the horror stories about  cancer treatment eg chemo sickness haven't come true for me -;yet!
