All journeys welcome. Anyone already have breast implants and diagnosed with breast cancer?

Hi GraceOlivia23 , sorry you’re going through this worry, hope your appointment comes soon so that you know more about what you’re dealing with. I haven’t had implants so can’t comment but thought I’d chip in anyway as it will bump your post up to the top again. Hopefully someone with a similar experience will see it and reply. In the meantime, just to say that I’ve had 2 previous referrals for lumps that did not turn out to be bc - one was a fibroadenoma and the other ‘lumpiness’ were cysts. I think it’s true to say (but I’m not a medic) that most lumps and bumps are not cancerous. And I’d assume this would apply equally to those with implants. 
Wishing you well, hope you come back here to tell us that all is well! If by any chance it’s not, there will be lots of support here. Love and hugs, HFxx 

Hi

Thank-you so much for replying.

I have been today, they called with a cancellation appt, I had an endamination and an ultrasound scan. 

The lump I can feel is apparently silicone that wasn’t flushed out when I had the old ruptured implant removed. Some lymph nodes near my armpit are infiltrated with silicone and so is some breast tissue. She said because I have lost weight and stopped breastfeeding may be why I can suddenly feel it, she also said something about it expanding with moisture and breast changes during pregnancy and breastfeeding.

She said she’s not concerned but if any changes to go back to gp. 
Sending love to you all xx 

That’s great news GraceOlivia23 ! Glad they fitted you in quickly, gives faith in the system! Annoying that the silicon is so pervasive but great that they looked into it thoroughly and it’s all ok. Xxx
