Hello Lawcher51

I'm sorry to hear that you've recently lost your brother. I'm sure that receiving this letter on top of everything else has been difficult. 

It may help you to know that it's not uncommon for women to be recalled after a mammogram, particularly if this was your first. I know that one of our regular members here [@Chriss]‍ has had multiple recalls with nothing to worry about. 

If you'd like to speak to one of our nurses for some advice and reassurance then please do give them a call. They're available Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm on 0808 800 4040. 

I hope this helps. 

Best wishes,

Hi there ...

Yea please don't panic ... as my first four call backs from mamorgrams over the years were fine... one was like a flat pebble , I was sure that was cancer .. the a round one movable .. fine ... then one that wouldn't move ... it turned out I have lumpy boobs ... 

Yea my 5th one was positive and that was in 2017 ... had a right masectomy ... and although it was a grade 3 ... I'm still here ... treatment have come a long way ... so let us know how you go ... 8.5 out of ten lumps are benign... fingers crossed ... Chrissie x
