The waiting game

Hi everyone this is my first post. Went to the breast care clinic yesterday having found a lump in November. I was quite confident it was a cyst but after an ultrasound and a biopsy I was told it is most likely a small cancerous lump. They have already made an appointment to see a consultant next Friday (which seems a lifetime away but I really appreciate how quickly it’s being dealt with). I am 57 and on HRT and am wondering if I should stop the HRT immediately or wait another week?  Sending love to all of you going through the same journey!

  • Hi Jude,

    A very warm welcome to our forum.

    I am sorry to hear about these results and hope that the consultant can shed more light on things. I am not a doctor, so cannot advise about stopping the HRT. I know that many people are advised to stop when given a diagnosis. It might be worth phoning your breast care nurse about this. You may need to leave a message, but she will get back to you as soon as she can.

    I sincerely hope that all goes well for you.

    Please keep in touch and let us know how you get on. We are always here for you.

    Kind regards,

    Jolamine xx

  • Thank you for your kind words. I will take your advice and put a call into one of the breast care nurses.
