Mammogram ok but still worried

Hi, I had posted before about a lump and waited weeks for mammogram which I finally had a week 1/2 ago. I called for results and they said they only ring you if they found anything  that that is good news. They don't do follow up consultation  for another month where they will actually examine  me. The lump is still the same and have pain in collarbone.  Has anyone had experience of a good result on the  mammogram  but still had cancer in the breast that didnt show up? Im finding it hard to put my mind at rest until I have the examination. There is just delays with covid hooe everyone is doing ok x

    I'm sorry to hear that you've been having some investigations of a breast lump. I think most of our members here will understand how difficult this period of waiting for results can be. It's natural to be anxious and worried. 

    Although it is a cliche, try to take things a day at a time and stay positive. It can help to remember that the large majority of breast lumps aren't cancerous. 

    Hopefully you won't have to wait too long for your appointment and the Consultant will be able to give you some reassurance about things. 

    Best wishes,
