hi I went for a mammogram 3 week ago I got the results from the consultant that said there was a change in the left breast I was told I needed a stereotactic core biopsy I went today for it the done the biopsy and told me they would be sending the results to pathology I’m going out of my mind as she mentioned microcalification that was all she would tell me I’m so confused terrified as there’s a long history of breast cancer in my family could anyone tell me anything

    Can’t tell y U anything but just wanted to say that I went for a mamaogram this morning due to pain right breast. 

    I have to have a core biopsy next Tuesday as they’re not happy with the new calcifications in this mammogram compared to 3 yrs ago. I’m hoping it’s related to the abundance of cysts I’ve had in this same breast for the past 12 yrs. 

    we don’t have any history of BC in our family but I do have an over presence of estrogen which is worrying...I’m taking Turmeric and Milk Thistle to try and reduce it and am going to start taking Magensium too to reduce calcifications going forward.

    im trying to stay positive and think if the core biopsy comes back as untoward that it’ll be very early stage BC 

    im 44 with a 5yr old...I can’t afford to be bloody ill!

    big hugs to you! Xx
