Hello ,
A few weeks ago I had a biopsy on a small lump I noticed in my right breast ( said lump has been there for about a year now but I was too nervous to get it checked also I had decided I was only 28 at the time so far to young for anything sinister). I had an ultrasound and a biopsy and everyone commented that it was most likely a fibro adenoma. I wasnt a bit worried going back to get my results and was absolutely floored to find out they were not normal. I was told it could be DCIS but that it is very small less then 5mm or maybe a papilloma but that they would not know until it was removed surgically. The doctor also mentioned I may need radiotherapy which again completely came as a shock. What I was expecting to be a 10 minute appointment turned into a 3 hour appointment and I had mammograms and a marker put in under ultrasound. They also found a second lump in my left breast which was also biopsied and found to be a fibroadenoma thankfully :) I have a meeting with my consultant tomorrow (she was on her holidays when I got my results ) and the breast care nurse mentioned I may need an MRI. Apart from my family and close friends I havent really told anyone and am pretty anxious having to take all these days off work. I find it very hard to tell anyone without bursting into tears hence why I havent told my colleagues even though I know they would be great. Just wanted to chat to other people who have gone through it are going through this .
