hi all

i went to gp on monday  who after examination said she could feel mass or thickening 3cm by 2 cm  has referred me to breast clinic said i should here within 3 weeks , she dont think its to concerning as i have discomfort 

on tuesday morning i had a call with thier earlist appointment date on the 8th march 

i asked what would roughly happen, nice lady on the phone said " you will have a mamagram , see consultant same day , and if need any other scan or biopsy also same day " 

so starting to panic little what has gp not told me , is it normal to have extra test same day if needed ?

    hope your ok ... I've had my op today and fingers crossed all is well . they told me it went well and I'll be going back in 2 weeks for my results. 
    that's my rant about myself LOL 

    please stay positive and go with all the test they offer it's for the best .... scary I know . I went in with abscess so much pain and 3 lots of antibiotics didn't touch it . So I had a mammogram and ultrasound ( age 44 ) I never thought for one minute I'd have to go through this before my 50s . They picked something up on the ultrasound and said I'd have to have biopsy when I was in less pain . I went back to the hospital for a check up and they did the biopsy. Turned my Xmas upside thing nothing but the worst . I got called back for my results in the jan and yes it was the dreaded cancer . They told me I had the most common one and was treatable. Can't say it was much comfort. All I want to say is please stay positive your not alone .
