Breast lump??

Hi Leighsp

So glad you are getting it checked out with the dr for your own peace of mind .

No point in saying not to worry as I have had breast cysts in my 20s, 40s and 50s . I panicked at them all but they all felt  like solid pebbles slipped under my skin . To the medics they were classed as moveable. They could make them move from side to side . My last one in the summer was 3 cm .  
Hormones impacted mine .

I get every single one checked then drained ! 

Not sure about the Ct aspect . I have seen it discussed here before and some say no as it depends on shape , size and what’s covered on the Ct scan !!

However that’s not always the case as my mum did get one picked up and her oncologist sent her to the breast clinic to get checked out . It too was just a cyst .

Hope you get it all resolved quickly and give you peace of mind .

Thanks court for your reassurance. I managed to get an emergency appointment today and I let my bowel team know this morning and asked if they could perhaps expedite a scan when I’m in for my pre op this Friday, but haven’t heard back yet. Hopefully the doctor this afternoon can offer me their input and I can get a scan for the peace of mind xx

Hi ,

How did you get on with the dr today ?

Hope it helped a little.

Hey, she said she’s not concerned about the lump but she will still refer me to the breast clinic to get it checked. It’s very mobile and she mentioned cysts and fibroadenomas so fingers crossed it’s benign! My bowel team are also going to speed things up so hoping to get in asap. She also prescribed me some meds for anxiety so hopefully I can relax a bit xx

Great . All sounds very positive and glad she was also able to help with the anxiety.

You are nearly there . 
Hold on tight .

Hi court, I have been this morning and had a physical exam and ultrasound and they couldn’t find any area of concern, they did an ultrasound and it is just fatty dense breast tissue I am so relieved! Can now just focus on my surgery next week xx

Oh fantastic news . Just what we hoped for .

Now to get this next stage in your plan going and get you back to full health and put this all firmly behind you .
