3cm lump in left breast

Hi all

First time on here , I had dcis breast cancer 4 years ago, they got it very early so I had a lumpectomy and no further treatment was needed. A few weeks ago I found a lump on the same side,  I had a biopsy on Tuesday just gone  and they also took something from my underarm with a needle, I think this was from my lymph nodes,  the doctor took me back in after the tests and said I had a 3cm mass which looks suspicious,  she also put her hand on my knee and said sorry and that I would see the surgeon in 2 weeks, I was on my own and I wish I'd asked more, I rung the breast nurse and told her how worried I am, she was very nice and said she would ring me this Tuesday after the MDT meeting, I'm just wondering what other peoples take is on this ,

Thankyou for reading

  • Hello Louise

    I'm sorry to hear that you're facing a possible breast cancer diagnosis again. It's understandable that you've been worried but I'm glad that the breast nurse as able to offer you some support. 

    Hopefully tomorrow will bring some news after the MDT and you'll have a better idea about what is going on for you. If there's any questions you have before the nurse calls you then maybe write them down so that you can ask her tomorrow. That way if your mind goes blank you'll have the list to remind you. 

    Do let us know how you get on. 

    Best wishes,
