Ct scan

I have an ovarian cyst removed which was borderline. Scan showed nothing else in my pelvis. But the doctor called and said it showed something on my sternum and I’ve been sent for a bone scan and to see a breast doctor. I’ve always had chest pain lumps and issues was told costrocondrinditis and a torn muscle. Now I think what if it’s breast cancer or lung cancer. My brain can’t process much more. Any advice 

  • Hello Coco and welcome to the Cancer Chat community.

    I'm really sorry to hear that the scan showed something on your sternum and for the stress and worry this is understandably causing.

    Many of our members know how scary this period of uncertainty can be so you are not alone and hopefully it won't be long until some of our members stop by to offer their support and advice.

    If you'd like to talk any of this through with one of our nurses, you can do so on 0808 800 4040, Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m. They will do all they can to help whilst you wait for your next set of appointments.

    We're thinking of you Coco and will have our fingers crossed everything will be o.k.
