Hi everyone, I’ve just come back from an appointment at the breast clinic. I was referred by my gp as I have a lumpy area on left breast and an indentation. I’ve had cysts in the past and this lumpy area has behaved exactly like a cyst but obviously the indentation was unusual. They did a mammogram & ultrasound. They said the lumpy bit was an area of concern and one lymph node looked a bit odd. They did a breast biopsy and took some fluid from the lymph node. My goodness the biopsy hurt!
I’m to go back next week when they’ll have the results. The nurse said they thought it might be a small cancer & they would have a meeting before my appointment to make a plan of action. That sounds pretty definitive? Do they know already just from looking? It’s been like this for a few months, I’m kicking myself for not going to gp sooner. I’m now dosed up on paracetamol with an ice pack on my boob so the pain is much better now. Just feeling pretty shocked. The worst part was telling my family. Thanks for reading my ramblings
