Had a recall from a mamogram. Went hospital today and told and saw a small white mass on left breast. Had a biopsy. Doc said couldnt do it by ultersound as it was so small. They put clip in afterwards
Is this normal
Thanks

Hi Shaz,
Welcome to our forum, although I'm sorry for the reason that you've joined us.
Have you been told how soon you will get the results of your biopsy? It is good news that your mass is too small to pick up on Ultrasound, so this sounds as if you've caught it early.
It is perfectly normal to have a marker placed in the breast, so that a surgeon knows exactly where your mass is.
This is a worrying time as you wait for your biopsy results. Try to keep yourself busy to help distract you from the wait. This is not the easiest thing to do with all this COVID 19 lockdown.
Do please let us know how you get on. We are always here for you.
Kind regards,

Hi Sharon,
Ditch Google straight away. You will only end up terrifying yourself. Much of the information is outdated, poorly researched, incorrect and aims at the spectacular cases. If you must look things up, do so on a reputable site, like this.
No matter what you look up at the moment, it will be of no use to you until you know what type and grade of cancer you have. Are you going back to the hospital for your results. If so, you will find it helpful to take someone with you.
Kind regards,

Hi
Yes if you can take somebody then please do .
I went for tests on Tuesday and my partner due to this blasted virus was told he had to leave the unit.
However when they gave me the results that I had cancer my partner was allowed in .
Fingers crossed for you .
