On 10th August my whole life flashed in front of me as the consultant and radiologist told me from the Mammogram and ultrasound I have breast cancer and “concerning activity in my lymph nodes” following this I had a CT and am awaiting an appointment next week for my results.
im petrified its spread, I know there’s nothing I can do but does anyone or has anyone had this feeling? Every pain I get at the mo my head is “ahh it’s gone there”
Hi, sorry you're going through this horrible phase of not knowing if it's spread or not. For me, that was the worst and it was such a relief to have the CT scan results. I hope you get clarity next week at your appointment. In the meantime, try to keep busy and distracted, but it's really hard. Best wishes xx
