I know it's very late so I don't expect much response straight away. But I've been really struggling this last week.
I had a mammogram a month ago and was shocked to receive a letter calling me back for further tests. I assumed the mammogram must have picked up the small breast abscess I had at the time of the mammogram - I've had them before and they clear up quickly. I was very shocked to be told it was nothing to do with this and the mammogram had detected calcifications? Apparently there was a cluster in my left breast. I had further mammograms, and a very uncofortable biopsy.
I'm now awaiting the results. Which I will receive by phone call!!!
I'm obviously very anxious, but struggling even more so because I feel so alone. I am married, but my husband is not supportive at all. When I had a lump investigated a year ago (which turned out to be an abscess) he refused to talk about it or acknowledge it at all. When I got the letter recalling a month ago I didn't tell him because his reaction last year made me feel very stressed ad I didn't want to handle that again. I told him when got back from having the biopsy on Monday and he has not spoken about it since or acted as if it's even happened! In fact, when I got upset about something that he ddn't do one mornng this week, he just said "What's got into you?".
Has anyone any advice about how I can cope? I have absolutely no idea how I'll be able to cope it the biopsy results show cancer! How can you deal with this on your own?
