Hi I went for a routine mammogram on 2nd september and was recalled for a core needle biopsy,ultrasound and more detailed mammogram on 9h sept as they had found something in my left breast,dr said didnt look like a cyst and thought it looked benign, got a phone call on 14th sept and they wanted me to go for a ultrasound vacuum assited biopsy on 21st sept as first biopsy inconclusive, I asked if could be cancerous and she said it was right in the middle and needed to get to bottom of what they had found, so i have had 12 samples took on wednesday and a metal clip inserted in my breast where they took the samples from and another mammogram,I got a letter today and an appointment has been made for me to see a breast surgery team member at surgical outpatients department on 28th sept,really don't know what to expect and dont know how i feel about it all, experiencing some pain really sharp and takes my breath away not sure if its coming from the clip they inserted, also they asked if any history of breast or ovarian cancer in family, i wasnt sure but mum has said my auntie n my dads side has had breast cancer twice and my nan from my dads side died of ovarian cancer when she was 47 should i tell my consultant this.
