Just back from breast clinic

Hi every...I found a pink/purplish tender lump 2 weeks ago on my breast.The doctor sent me to the breast clinic .So I had a mammogram,ultrasound and a biopsy today because no mass was found on the mammogram or ultrasound even though the surgeon can feel the lump..she decided to do a biopsy. So Im still no wiser as to what it is...the surgeon did say that the tissue she removed looked fatty and didnt look suspicious but Im still worried sick until I get the biopsy results back..anyone any experience of this?

  • Hello Skelly and a big welcome to Cancer Chat, 

    I just wanted to welcome you to our forum. I hope you won't have to wait too long for your biopsy results. I can imagine it must be a very stressful time for you while waiting to find out more. 

    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. There are helpful 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,
