About Sleepy Mushroom

I'm 42 years old. I found a lump under my right arm in September 2015. GP referred me to the breast unit at the hospital for mammogram, breast ultrasound and needle biopsy. Confirmed cancer from the needle biopsy in mid-October, but no primary was confirmed. Since then done blood test, breast MRI and chest/abdomen/pelvis CT scan, but the diagnosis remained CUP after the tests / scans results. The breast unit is now referring me to oncology. Waiting to see the oncologist on Dec 3 with chemo scheduled for Dec 9.
