Hi,

I was in your shoes 2 weeks ago! When I went to clinic (last Wednesday) I had mammogram and ultrasound. Radiographer was not worried about the lump/ swelling that has sent me there but said he felt something else. So he decided to do a biopsy there and then. It was nowhere near as bad as I would have expected. Practically painless. He put in a tiny marker for future ref, took another mammogram to be certain it was in the right place and that was it. A bit sore and bruised after but totally manageable.

I got a call today from consultant to say it was benign and doesn't need any follow up. So there are positive stories- try not to worry too much! Fingers crossed for you. Waiting is hard. I have an MRI on 21st Oct on pancreas so scared stiff about that!- Another waiting game :(

I hope all works out well for you. Take care. x

Hi

Thank you for replying. You feel so alone. Only hubby and my sister know..had to tell someone. Trying not to think of how to tell the kids if it IS BC. You can see I'm galloping down the road of scenarios. Which is worse making mental lists just incase? Or not in the hope you wont have to? Moved things around in 2 bedrooms yesterday just to keep me busy. If it's a 3 week wait this will be the tidiest house in the countyFell apart half way through tea...no apparent reason..wasnt thinking about it at the time. 

Lost my dad in July...this really easnt needed on top of all that.

So glad you are getting your op so quickly and covid has not affected your treatment. You sound so much more positive now and I hope everything goes well and your recovery goes well. As you said they obviously knew what they saw but couldn't confirm it without a biopsy. I'm so sorry you are going through this but stay strong they aren't messing about and they will get you the best treatment for you xx

Hi Whatnext,

I am glad that you feel better now knowing what is going to be done. You will obviously have to wait until your post-op pathology results come back before treatment is decided upon. However, it is always good to get started and I'm glad to see that you don't have too long to wait.

I was bricking it when I had my lumpectomy and my bilateral mastectomy, but I found it a lot easier to get through than I expected - I'm sure that you will too.

Kind regards,

Hi everyone,

Jumping on the forum as I also am waiting for results. 

I hope everyone gets their results quickly as the waiting is agonising. 

I found a lump 6 weeks ago under my armpit/side boob, had ultrasound and biopsies last Wednesday, this revealed 2 cysts at the front of my boob but they were undetermined about the lump. Since my biopsy the lump is harder and more painful. 

My hospital letter said that the lump is a U3 lesion, does anyone know what that means? I get the results next Wednesday and I am constantly feeling sick with worry.

Hi Sam, 

I am sorry to hear you are worrying, I understand this as I am going this worry myself. Today is my first appointment at the clinic and I am suddenly feeling really anxious about it, not sure why! 
 

I am sorry I don't know anything about that so I can't offer anything but I am thinking of you and I hope you have good news come back next week!

Hi Traciej.

That's good news. At least you'll get some answers hopefully.  I was hoping to get a few days of bot havingvto think about it. A call yesterday to book a covid test 3 days before surgery....... two more calls today. Great support network falling into place. Bit it would be nice just to have a couple of days for me.....so I can get my head in the right place. Anxiety level is ok one minute and nudging the stratosphere the next. How I'm going to be Sunday and Monday (8th&9th) is anyones guess. I might ask if theres something They can give me ti calm the old nerves

Hi whatsnext, 

Yes I'm relieved somewhat. Least I now know when I'm going. Was beginning to think I'd been forgotten  

I know what you mean, it would of been nice for you to have some 'me' time, lord knows you need it but I guess where this is concerned they're not going to hang around. Not long to go though now for you
