Scared

i had a breast reduction 2 years ago.. mammogram was clear also breast tissue taken analysed and came back clear.

i found a lump in my breast which was confirmed a cyst n was drained but mammogram and ultra sound showed two areas of concern.. one of the areas was thought to be scar tissue from the op the other I was told was more sinister and was confirmed a breast cancer. Waiting a week to be confirmed ... what should I expect.

  • Hi there ..

    I know this waiting is scary .. but they may do a biopsy and more scans .. or once you know .. then you'll have a meeting with one of the oncology team .. mine was with my surgeon ... befor that they have a weekly meeting where they discuss everyone's results and work out the best way forward ...

    I'd hang on till you find out for sure .. there should be breast cancer nurses to help you through and explain things .. please take someone with you .. write down any questions you have as you forget on the day ., take a pen and paper with you so the person you take can write things down ..

    When I went everything said after the word cancer went right over my head .. luckily my daughter in law wrote everything down .. there's lots of us breast lasses on here. . Your not alone ..
