Hi everyone. I went for my annual mammogram two weeks ago. I was told I needed to come back and have an ultrasound. Now I need to go back in three weeks and have a biopsy guided by ultrasound in my left breast. What they are seeing doesn’t look like a mass (although I’m confused as to what they are seeing). I’m TOTALLY freaking out. I’m 46 years old with no history of breast cancer.
A little background for you. My mother just passed away from pancreatic cancer 5 weeks ago. She was diagnosed on Dec 3rd and she passed at 77 years old on the 28th of December. You can say that the C word is really making me anxious. I’m trying to deal with the loss of my mom and now I I have this thrown at me. Overwhelmed to say the least. I know it might be nothing and I’m trying
not to get overly upset about this but it’s so hard.
Any experience, words of wisdom or advice would be appreciated. Did I mention that getting a needle in my breast is scaring me a bit too?
Thanks guys for your help.
