Hi everyone,
I just wanted to get some advice. I visited my GP as I have been having persistent itching in my breast for 2 months. I also thought I felt a change in the breast and she said she would refer me to the one stop breast clinic.
I visited the clinic on Wednesday and had an examination. I'm a bit worried that the consultant that did it was very flippant and I could tell that he didn't think I should be there but said he would order an ultrasound to make sure.
I had my ultrasound, and it was at that point that she found something quite low down on my breast (which I could see on the screen). She said she was worried about it and took 6 samples of it.
however when I went back to see the consultant he again was very flippant and basically said it's a Fibroadenoma and it would be fine.
im just concerned as I'm not sure how he knows that by looking ( I realise that cancer usually has certain markers that Fibroadenoma's don't have). So I'm wondering if anyone has been told that it is a Fibroadenoma but then turned out to be cancer?
Thanks everyone
