Hi everyone,
I had a routine mammogram and was called back after 2 weeks! Those 2 weeks were of.course very anxious. 
I attended my appointment, had further X-rays, ultra sound scans and examinations.
The consultant explained.she was happy with the results and.i left relieved. 
I have since had a further call to go back for more.scans and possible biopsy. 
I feel like I am on a roller coaster right now. Is this normal to see a further Consultant? 
I know this is probably just precautionary buy it's just a little unnerving 
Thanks.in advance for any advice you can give me 
Hugs to all

    Hello Natjshop and a warm welcome to Cancer Chat, 

    I can imagine this feels a bit like a rollercoaster for you as you were initially told by the consultant everything was fine and felt relieved but subsequently got a call to go back for more scans and a possible biopsy. I am not sure myself what this means and it may indeed just be precautionary but I can understand this is rather unnerving for you. I hope that you will hear from other members of our community to whom this has also happened and that they will be along shortly to share their story with you. 

    All you can do really for now is wait for these additional scans and for possible biopsy results. I hope you won't have to wait too long to find out more and I thought I would share these helpful tips with you to help you cope while waiting for important news. 

    Keeping everything crossed for you that it all turns out to be nothing of concern.

    Best wishes,
