Me too. Found a huge lump recently and have the one stop appointment this week. Totally dreading it. Hope they ring soon - it should be fairly quick It does help just to know you're not alone going through all this 

Hi  

I'm waiting too. I have been recalled after a mammogram with a cancer charity screening service. Mammogram was 5 weeks ago and I got the recall letter over 2 weeks ago. Unfortunately the xrays weren't sent to breast clinic then, they only received then last week, so I have another 2 weeks to wait. The waiting is torture,  our family history isn't great (to say the least) and I switch from saying its nothing to worst case scenario minute by minute, like you all.

Thank you for starting this thread, it's nice to know we're not alone x

How awful to have the extra waiting time - torture right enough. Worst case scenario is never far from my mind either... I'm convinced it is serious for me.

Hope and pray your appointment comes soon and brings good news x. 

Hi Fiona,

I am sorry to hear that you are in this unenviable situation too. Was this your first mammogram? People are often recalled after the first one, because the hospital don't have any further images to compare their findings to. The recall rate for subsequent mammograms is much lower and, recalls don't always indicate bad news.

Your emotions will be all over the place whilst you are waiting to be seen at the breast clinic. Most of us find this. Fortunately, things are seldom as bad as we imagine them to be. I have had 2 bouts of breast cancer in the past 12 years and I still lead a busy and fulfilled life. Try to keep yourself preoccupied with a project of some sort to help the time to pass.

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

Here's hoping that you will have some good news.

Kind regards,

Jolamine xx
