What can I expect ??

Evening all

My GP refered me to my local Breast screening clinic as I had found a lump, she confirmed it wasn't my imagination and also said I have dimpling and what looks like dark areas on my breast.  Tomorrow I'm going for my appointment and I just wanted to know what to expect, it says on the letter General Surgery within the breast unit... I'm petrified by trying to stay positive but I'm worried what's gonna happen tomorrow... xx

  • Hi,

    I don't know if this is going to help but anyway I went for breast clinic appointment today. The surgeon examined me, sent me for an ultrasound but found nothing behind the breast. I have itchy nipples and skin around is crusty and peeling off, so after the ultrasound they done a biopsy, the gave me anesthetic to numb my left nipple and took small skin out to send it to the lab and booked me in to see the doctor in 3 weeks time. I know how you feel, I was feeling anxious, I didn't know what they were going to do, its just a little bit pain with the injection other than that you don't feel anything. Its nothing to worry about I hope everything goes well for you! Xx

  • Ah Thankyou, it's been a long 4 week wait to go up and it's the unknown that makes it worse, hope yours comes back all ok x

  • I know I can understand, aw thank you x
