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

    I was in a very similar situation just days before Christmas, I was given the news I need a hospital visit after my first mammogram, a further scan showed a solid lump and a biopsy was taken within minutes, this was a total shock, and I left the hospital terrified.

    The next week was so worrying, and if my friend hadn't come with me I don't know how I would have coped with going for the results.

    I was told I have a Phyllodes tumor, I was told they think it is benign and was booked in for surgery on 3rd of Jan... scared again as never had an opperation.

    All done now and waiting for reults of op, 2 days to go... still scared although I should be releived it could be so much worse and feel stupid for being so worried.

    I wish all the ladies on this site well with their treatment and thank them for sharing their experiences as it has helped me cope x
