Hi I had to re read this post as it was like I’d written it myself. I am going through the same, and like your consultant mine too wasn’t concerned- that changed with the radiologist when he saw it was solid! 

I had 3 biopsies on that area and whilst doing them they took pictures with the screen I think, which concerned me more.

My anxiety is always there although sometimes I’m strong and other times just crying. 

I just wanted you to know you’re not alone and feel free to get in touch if you need someone to wait this out with xxx

Thankyou so much - thanks for your concern whilst you are experiencing the same . I’m trying to remain positive . I had a clear mammogram in January so it’s all come as a shock , I don’t know about you but I’m black and blue from the biopsy , the steri strips have come off now - they were in a funny position near my armpit and came off in this heat . My lump feels like it’s  got bigger too - but read this I’d normal after a core biopsy . My holiday is a week on Sunday - I think I’m going to cancel it , my anxiety is through the roof Xx thanks for reaching out and I hope you get answers very soon xxx 

Thank you so much, can I ask kind of the timeline and what happened from your breast clinic visit onwards please? 
We are meant to be cruising to Norway, it’s been booked for ages and going with my mum, my hubby and my daughter- I hate how I’ve stopped everyone looking forward to it and instead worrying about me instead  

Mine was slightly unusual as I had the biopsy privately and then transferred back to nhs under the same consultant (i had my nhs breast clinic appointment around 5 days after my biopsy). But here is my timeline:

19 April - biopsy result

29 April - meet with consultant on NHS who ordered MRI and mammograms and genetic testing. I was prescribed tamoxifen

1 May - MRI

8 May - mammogram

20 May - meeting to agree treatment but I got this moved up on a cancellation. It was originally booked for 7 June. I needed a liver MRI as they saw something on my breast MRI on my liver. Turned out to be cysts.

24 May - liver MRI

26 June -operation 

I hope this helps.

I get it's a worrying time but honestly if you can go and try and  enjoy yourselves. It will help. Keeping a positive mindset is key. 

Xx

Thank you so so much for sharing. I hope your operation went ok and your recovering well and resting  xxx

It seemed to go as planned thank you. I'm doing OK do far. Not as bad as I thought I  might be. I would like the drain to go. Codeine really is my friend right now. Xx

Oh that doesn’t sound nice at all but yay for the codeine! How long did you have to stay in the hospital for? Xx 

They said most are discharged the same day but as I have small children they wanted to keep me in. But given the heatwave they said I could go home. So I was home by 8pm and very grateful I was too :) It was very hot in the hospital and I was very glad to be in my own bed. Xx

That’s so good that you got home the same day. Hopefully you’re managing to rest now. How old are your little ones? Xx 

My youngest turned 5 in early June and my eldest will turn 7 next week :)  They are my driving force in this. I need to be here for my girls as they grown up. I've had a very restful day thanks. Daddy day care in full flow :) xx 

They are a fantastic driving force  You will be there to watch them grow up  Glad you had a restful day. You sound like such a tough cookie and the help and support you offer on here is so appreciated xx 

Thank you. I've read a lot and I lost my mum to this horrid disease in 2019.  So if I can pass anything on, I will try :)   xx
