Had my first mammogram a couple of weeks ago, got a letter within a week to have further tests. I went last week had a repeat mammogram, saw the consultant had an ultra sound then core needle biopsy. They found microcalcifications in my left breast. Don't know how to feel losing so much sleep
Hi Mizty and welcome to the Online Community but so sorry to hear about your ongoing diagnosis.
The cancer diagnosis process can be very challenging but talking with others who are walking the same type of cancer journey will help you navigate this difficult time.
The New to Community is like the Community Reception area and as there are many cancer types so likewise the Community has many cancer specific support groups abd I see you have joined our supportive Breast cancer group as this will be a good place to connect with folks on the same cancer treatment pathway.
To go to the group just click on the link above then introduce yourself by putting up a ‘New Thread’ or hit the box with the X on the top right (phones), you could just copy and paste the text from this your first post. You can also join in with existing ‘Discussions’ by clicking on 'reply'.
It’s always good to talk so do call the Macmillan Support Services on 0808 808 00 00 - most services are open 8am to 8pm, 7 days a week Clicking here to see what is available. This service provides lots of cancer information, support, financial guidance or just a listening ear.
We also have Cancer Nurse Team in our Ask an Expert section, but do allow two working days for replies from our expert team.
