Morning all 

Same as you all went to see doctor on Friday had letter today for breat clinic week today 

Is ut normal for appointment to come so fast 

I found one lump in right upper side of breast but during doctor exam found a further 2 in arm pit can not get it off my brain and had a melt down friday night 

Hey Missty,

Welcome to the forum and sorry to hear that you’re having a tough time with worry.

like others have said, it’s all very normal to receive your referral very quickly. I received a referral review letter in the post the day after my doctors appointment, but then it took a few weeks to get my appointment (due to the waitlist in my area and recent strikes) whereas others received their appointments much quicker than me. 

I’m pleased you’ve managed to get an appointment so soon, but please don’t read anything into this. 

it’s incredibly hard to focus on anything else when you’re so anxious, but honestly, having a good cry and getting those emotions out are so important. I hope you have a good support network around you - do try and keep yourself busy if you can. Watch a few episodes of something to take your mind off things or take yourself out for a lovely walk somewhere pretty and soak up nature. 

Let us know how you get on, we are all here to chat anytime xx

I’m glad you finally have all of your results back- the waiting is always the worst part, isn’t it? I will admit that I don’t actually understand what triple negative means, even though I’ve seen a lot of people refer to it. 
I’m sure you’re right about the wanting to talk things through face to face. I don’t know why I’d convinced myself otherwise! I’ll just feel better once I know what’s happening for sure xx

Thanks Ruby- I expect that’s all it is. It’s the not knowing that worries us all, isn’t it? Hopefully it will be saying that all is as they thought and setting a date for surgery xx

I’ve just googled it, and now know what triple negative means!! It also now makes sense of something in my letter from the hospital!

glad you had your mri. And it went well 

but at least with triple negative you don’t need to take hormone therapy afterwards, my bestie had triple negative, she’s finished everything now and doing absolutely amazing you will too xxx 

Thank you Ruby43 xx

Well, I’m now at the hospital, having unexpectedly been called in for another ultrasound. That doesn’t fill me with confidence that all is as they thought! Last time they said they could see two lumps, but couldn’t see what was going on in between as the tissue was dense. I’m wondering whether the MRI showed something going on in that region and that they are going to biopsy that- but of course I have no idea! 

Let’s hope it’s just a check xx Let us know how it goes xx

Awww no I really hope it’s all ok for you and nothing to worry about, my breast care nurse told me they are more sensitive and can pick up other lumps and not to be too alarmed if I get called back, however I would be panicking like you if they  do that. I have everything crossed for you and hope your ok.

let us know how you get on xx

Thank you- as you suggested, the MRI showed more very small lesions- the doctor said it was like a little daisy chain. They wanted to biopsy the ones furthest from the biggest lump, and make sure they knew how big the segment to removed needs to be. The other lesions are really small and wouldn’t really be visible to the surgeon.

It turns out the MRI also showed a cyst on my liver, which I may be called back about. I’ve been told they are common and I may even have been worn with it- just another thing to worry about, in case I should run out of worries!! 

That was supposed to say BORN with it !!
