Hey all I’m new here
Had an appointment on Thursday for a lump I found which mammogram and ultrasound found to be harmless. However if did flag up a white spot In my left breast and some calcification in some lymph nodes in opposite armpit. The lady has requested my old mammograms from a different hospital to see if they were there before or new? Nothing has ever been mentioned to me before though. Now the dreaded wait to see what her findings are and if I need a biopsy and mri scan. I’m driving myself crazy all while my sister is battling cancer too. The hospital was talking about the lymph nodes as I have a tattoo sleeve on that arm saying ink could have found it’s way into them. Nothing was said about the white spot on my left Breaat though. Can’t seem to stop myself thinking the worse at the moment.
Hi..I'm relatively new also. Got results of everything day Friday, so life's been on hold. Did they tell you how long you would have to wait for her findings? So sorry your sister is going through this awful disease. It is hard trying to stay positive but I'm just going with whatever it may be now. Its just the waiting. Hope you hear soon x
Hey there, because she needs old mammograms from a different hospital she has no clue on time scale. I hope you get good results this waiting is awful x
So that could be a long wait, that's awful! Can't she just use the results she has on this new mammogram to save you the worry if waiting?? X
