Hi everyone. I was told in clinic this week after a mammogram and ultrasound that I have breast cancer. The specialist nurse seemed positive and said the lymph nodes look clear and looks early. I have one lump with 2 small coming off it. All together is 3cm. I’m scared of what’s ahead. Any similar stories? Results on Thursday. TIA
Were you told that you had cancer without having the biopsy results back?
I had a biopsy yesterday. All I have been told is that they found something suspicious. Next appointment has been booked for 3 weeks time which feels forever away.
my husband got diagnosed with bowel cancer and was told during his colonoscopy that they had found a cancer before getting the biopsy results.
This is making me think that they have just taken a biopsy to be on the safe side. Don’t really know what to think at this point
i hope all goes well for your appointment on Thursday
