Waiting for breast biopsy result

Hi

I had a breast biopsy and mammogram done last week and have spent the last 6 days in complete fear of the results. After the biopsy and mammogram I was called back into a room with the doctor and a bcn to be told the mammogram was very worrying as the mass looked highly suspicious. As a 42 year old mother of 2 I have been beside myself with worry it’s been with me 24/7 and anxiety levels through the roof!

Today I got my results (I was literally crying on the way into doctors room) it’s not breast cancer, it’s a Fibroadenoma. I wanted to share this so that anyone going through this awful time can see suspicious lumps don’t always mean cancer. I also want to wish everyone good luck whatever their outcome xx

  • Thank you for sharing [@Sazcop]‍ I'm delighted that you got good news.

    I'll be a my breast clinic appointment on Thursday and know I may then have to wait a week or two for any results. I'm also a mum of two so it's a worrying time, but I'm trying to remain optomistic. Reading your post has helped with that :-)

  • Hi lucy

    it’s great if you can be as positive as you can as I think my little one (5 yrs) definitely picked up something wasn’t right. The waiting is both frustrating and terrifying but it’s true what everyone on here says try and keep busy and get out as much as you can as it’s a distraction. I found google and the middle of the night we’re my worst enemies

    whatever the outcome Lucy good luck, statistics are well on your side xx
