Just had recall

So two weeks ago had routine mammogram  Friday I received the dreaded call back letter ..... however for some reason wasn't surprised  my right breast was painful when the breast was as I say being squashed and still feels slightly tender now  this has never happened before so slightly worried  having been on this train in my 30s with cervical  cancer it's one I wasn't hoping to catch again! Tuesday is the day for follow up appointment and husband coming with me

  • I had my recall letter last Tuesday 10 days after my routine mammogram my second one. Never been recalled before absolutely terrified is an understatement. Had previous non cancerous lump removed in 2014 just after full hysterectomy. Been on HRT since middle of 2015. Risks are high due to mom and her sister having breast cancer thrn we lost mom to pancreatic cancer, my aunty now has terminal bone cancer and their brother has lung cancer. We now also have a breast cancer case in a maternal cousin. It's been the longest week ever but my appointment is tomorrow, they've advised me to take my hubby. Contacted hospital wouldn't tell me anything other than to bring him and my appointment will be 3-4 hours long. So I'm feeling your pain and wish you all the luck in the world xx
