Awaiting biopsy results but told I've got Breast cancer

I found a lump two wks ago. 

Within the two week period like my gp said I was seen by the breast clinic. 

Had a ultra sound scan, lump is 3cm.

Had a Mamogram same day, confirmed lump was worrying and looked like cancer. 

Had a core biopsy same day, x3 took. 

Told I was 5/5 likely to have BC and to come back in a wk for biopsy results and treatment plan.

Macmillian nurse was there for last consultation, breast care specialist. 

Am I in denial thinking my biopsy could come back not cancer?

They are saying the biopsy will confirm their diagnosis and get a treatment plan sorted. 

Anyone had anything similar to me?

  • Hi sorry about your diagnosis, you will find everything happens so quick - which is great- but like a whirlwind. 

    I saw GP 30/1 after finding lump in my left armpit. phone call from breast clinic a few days later with app 15/2- had mammogram, US & biopsy same day- consultant said lump found in my left breast and looked cancerous.  Results 27/2- Grade 1 Invasive ductal cancer- operation date 12/3 to remove.  Had op removed tumour-& x5 lymph nodes. informed 27/3 tumour removed good margins & 1 node contained cancer. Saw Oncologist 2/4 to discuss treatment- decided chemo not required & I have booking app radiotherapy 1/5, with Radiotherapy starting 22/5- 15 sessions & Tamoxifen for 5 years. 

    So as you can see it’s a lot if appointments. 

    If you need to  talk/ ask questions- do, as we are all going through this together & coming out the other side. 

  • Any advice to anyone in the same Position, pre surgery?
