Hi,
I went into clinic on Tuesday morning to have a lump checked, a lump that my doctor wasn't concerned about and didn't refer me for but my mum made me call back and demand to be referred. When I arrived in the clinic the lady who first checked me thought it was nothing to worry about, sent me for an ultrasound anyway (I'm only 30 so that was chosen over a mammogram), the sonograoher doing the ultrasound went and had a very quiet phone call over at her desk and said we've decided to send you for a mammogram too, so she done a biopsy and then sent me for a mammogram! After that I was sat waiting, got taken into a room with 3 people where they told me 'I'm sorry I told you not to worry but we are very concerned and very suspicious with what we've found' - que my breakdown as I genuinely thought I would be in and out with no issues at all!
I was then assigned a breast care nurse who took me to a room and advised me that it is treatable and curable (amaizng of course) BUT my question is..... has anyone ever had this and then the biopsy has come back and said it's not cancerous? My breast care nurse was tellling me I should prepare and prepare my family etc so i feel like they were so sure but can they be that sure without the biopsy results? I feel absolutely sick to my stomach waiting for my results, I don't know what to do with myself and feel like im living in another world!
I guess i'm just trying to find any hope that they could be really wrong - can they really tell so much from ultrasounds and mammograms????
From a very anxious and scared mum of 2!
