Hi there. Just over two weeks ago I found a lump in my left breast, lower inner side. Saw my GP the next day who referred me. I’m back from my appointment today where I had a mammogram and ultrasound. I had a physical exam two days earlier, couldn’t have scan then because the mammogram machine malfunctioned!!
Anyway, Dr at physical exam suggested lump was likely not suspicious but obviously couldn’t confirm without scans. Today i had my mammogram first, the team were unable to give any indications from that (is that because it looked bad or they weren’t qualified to?). During the ultrasound the lump was very clear and I was told I needed a biopsy. They also took a biopsy of my lymph nodes under my left arm. I asked if the latter was concerning, the Dr said he was dotting Is and crossing Ts. But I’m really scared they did the biopsy on the lymph node too.
Drs described my lump as smooth and movable. During the wait since noticing it, I have felt it larger at ovulation, reduce then increase again as my period started. Which after googling those symptoms sound promising (I know people say not to but how can you not!!!). But, now I’ve had to have biopsies in both areas, I’m fearing the worst.
Can anyone share similar experiences, good or bad please?
