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 am so pleased to hear this. I am day one of the seven day wait for biopsy results ! I waited five weeks to get a large cyst aspirated to find out three weeks later it had returned then scan today found second lump that was solid feel like I'm on a rollercoaster!! I had written myself off just before Christmas to then get good news to now start the process again ‍♀️

    Hi Angel,

    I am so sorry to hear that your cyst has filled up again so quickly. Having had 2 bouts of breast cancer in the past 11 years, I know how dashed you must feel, having thought that you were all clear at Christmas.

    I sincerely hope that nothing untoward is found in this new lump.

    Do please let us know how your biopsy results go. We are always here for you.

    Kind regards,

  • Jolamine I don't know much of your story but looking at your kind responses and clear understanding, can I just say I am in total awe of you already and think you are an amazing person ️

  • I had a core biopsy done 2 days ago, lymph node and lump which is under nipple. I waited for screening to get checked because of COVID and now feel incredibly stupid for leaving it so long. I believed it was just cysts that had previously been diagnosed but obviously there was something else brewing and now have to wait 2 whole weeks for results. I feel sore and aching all over but think that's just the shock although the bruising is quite extensive to my left boob. It just helps to know there's people out there willing to share as I feel a complete wimp. I'm 53 and have a lovely husband and grown up children so plenty of support at home but don't want to burden them with my anxiety.
