  • Hello chhaya99 and welcome to Cancer Chat, 

    It's reassuring news that the CA125 was normal and it's good that they are being thorough and you were offered a scan to see what is going on. I hope that everything went well when you had the scan and that you won't have to wait too long for your results. 

    I can imagine you must be feeling rather anxious at the moment as you also found this small pea sized lump on the side of your left breast and this has also left you having to wait for weeks for answers. I imagine you have been referred to the breast clinic and I thought I would share with you information from the Breast Cancer Now site on what to expect at a breast clinic appointment. Try not to worry too much though as the great majority of lumps that are referred to the breast clinic turn out not to be cancer. I am keeping everything crossed for you that everything turns out to be fine.

    I know it is really hard but try not to worry too much or anticipate what it might be. The best thing to do to avoid thinking too much about this is to keep busy and distracted if you can and avoid looking things up online. I can imagine it is hard for you to do this at the moment but it will help you feel a little less anxious. Waiting for results can be nerve-racking and there are useful tips on this page to help you cope while waiting for important news. 

    I hope you will also hear from others here who have been through all this before and that they will be along soon to share their story with you. 

    Keeping everything crossed for you that everything turns out fine. 

    Best wishes,
