I was referred to 2ww breast clinic with a minor symptom. I expected to be seen and dismissed quite quickly and I really wasn't worried.
I had mammogram yesterday, followed by ultrasound. They said there's no tumour or mass but an area of abnormal tissue and some microcalcifications. They took some biopsies and I get the results next week. The doctor said at the time that it didn't appear to have sinister features, so to start with I still wasn't too worried.
But now I'm feeling quite down and sad about it. It's going to be a very long week.
I've been looking things up and it seems likely that if there is any cancer it would be very early stages. So on the one hand, it feels like no big deal either way, on the other it feels quite worrying.
I hate the not knowing.
