Well this isn’t in my life plan

Hi tthere

I am new to this forum 

found a lump in my left breast 25th October went to the doctors the following day, and he did an online referral when I got home the following day, the letters on my doormat

went into my hospital on Halloween. Had my first mammogram, then I was sent round to have an ultrasound done where they told me it wasn’t a cyst- I had to have two biopsies done, one in the breast and one in the armpit because I said I had two predominant lymph-node

They also inserted a clip, and then I had to go back round and have another mammogram done. After that I was taken into room to speak to a consultant. I had to get on dressed as she had a field and as I was  getting dressed, she asked if anybody was with me today and I said no

So I asked her out right do you think it’s cancer and she said yes, the lump is a high suspicion

That’s when my world fell apart. The first thing I thought of was my kids, my job I  had only just sorted out my life insurance.

Got taken into another room to speak to Breast nurse and she told me that my biopsies will be sent to be tested, and I’ve got to go back Thursday to talk about the plan of action

I am totally numb

  • Hi Wisey254,

    A very warm welcome to our forum.

    I am so sorry to hear that you are likely to have breast cancer and that you will get your diagnosis on Thursday. This is not in anyone's life plan, but it is not the end of the world and it is perfectly "doable". I had 2 bouts within a year of one another and am still living a busy and fulfilling life 14 years down the line. Look at this as just a bump in the road.

    Please keep in touch and let us know how you get on this Thursday. We are always here for you.

    Kind regards,
