Breast calcification

Hi, feeling a bit emotional. Had breast cancer 10 yrs ago, left mastectomy and  lumpectomy on right side. Implants both sides. Just been recalled to breast clinic as they have found a suspicious area in my upper right breast. Could be scarring or calcification. In a panic. 

  • Hello there and thanks for getting in touch

    I am sorry to hear about your past history and I'm sure needing to go for more tests is worrying as well as perhaps bringing all those memories back.

    Unfortunately no one is going to be able to tell you any more than you already know at this point. The important thing is this has been picked up and is being investigated further.

    Try not to panic or over think things for now. There is a chance this could be as they have said scarring or calcifications so try and take things one step at a time.

    Keep yourself busy whilst you wait as this can help but do get back if you need to. You are also welcome to call our nurse helpline to talk things through. We're here mon-fri 9-5 on 0808 800 4040.

    I hope everything is ok for you.

    Take care

    Naomi
