Referred to breast clinic, very scared. Please help

Hi I also have just been referred to breast clinic as I had swollen lypmph glands, pain in breasts and dr found thickening of the breast tissue on one side. I'm worried sick I also had a tumour marker test and it came back slightly higher than it should. I'm so very anxious and to top it off I am booked in for a biopsy on my womb as that has also thickened !!!! Helpppp

  • Hi Clare,

    Welcome to our forum. I am sorry to hear of all that you are going through. I know just how worrying this is, but please try not to panic.  Not all breast changes are sinister and it is unusual to have pain associated with breast cancer.Many people develop benign breast cysts or fibrous changes in the breast.

    How soon are you due to have your biopsy? You will usually be seen at the breast clinic within 2 weeks of referral. I sincerely hope that all turns out well for you. Please let us know how you get on. We are always here for you.

    Kind regards,

    Jolamine xx
