Consultant sure its breast cancer

Hi. Ive posted on here recently. I had my breast clinic appointment today and after a examination, 3 biopsies and an ultra sound, my consultant has said he is 100% sure its breast cancer. Im due back to the hospital in a week for a mammogram, ct and mri scan. Im nervous if it has spread but my consultant is telling me its treatable. I just wanted to hear from others who have/ had breast cancer. Im scared and trying to put on a brave front. Also, i'll be having a chat with them about genetics and fertility. So much to take in but im determined to fight this!

  • Hi. Thanks for your message. Im just feeling really low at the moment because im getting more intense pain today. My mum said it could be where i had my examination and 3 biopsies. Im a worrier.

  • Hi again Amy,

    I'm sorry you're going through this and feeling sick about chemo. That's completely understandable.. and at the same time, this is gold standard, carefully managed treatment, that is going to make you well again. But yep I completely get how scarey this is. Thinking about you Amy and sending you a big virtual hug. (Also.. just seen your other response about pain.. yep listen to your sensible mum..i was told breast cancer is rarely associated with pain.. so don't imagine anything too negative.. it's most likely the biopsies.. in very sensitive tissue).keep talking.. there are wise women on here who are just a few steps ahead of you on this journey. X 

  • Hi.  Im feeling low now. I keep doing this, one minute ok the next upset! Im hoping chemo won't be too bad, but i'll just have to put up with it.  I had my mri yesterday, it wasn't painful but i was so uncomfortable because i had to lay on my front and i could only see beneath me. Got my ct tomorrow, hoping it will be easier! Thanks for your reply

     

     

     

  • I hope i don't sound stupid, but the main thing that is worrying me is that they're saying i have multiple tumors in my breast. A large one behind the nipple, a few small ones to the side and one near my armpit. Has anyone else had more than one tumor? Im terrified that they're going to find more all over my body and that im going to be stage 4. 

  • Hi Amy, 

    How you getting on?

     

    Many thanks

  • Hi. Im ok thanks. Had results today. Thankfuly my ct hasn't shown spread to my organs. But the consultant seems sure the lymph nodes in my chest are cancerous, so more tests today and a pet scan due! Then seeing oncology for hopefuly my treatment plan. Im feeling ok about it all now, relieved it isn't as bad as i thought
