So I thought I’d got away with a 7mm breast tumour and tamoxifen and radiotherapy but at the radiotherapy planning appt the ct scan picked up a shadow on my kidney. Now waiting for ct scan of abdomen and pelvis too! Could be a cyst. Not sure ?! Had blood test and urine test but I’m panicking . Anyone else had this sort of thing ??

  • Hi, so sorry to hear this and it's no wonder that you're worried but good that you're getting this checked out and of course it could be nothing. I hope that you get the test results soon and that your scans are arranged quickly as the uncertainty and the waiting is always the most difficult. The lovely folks here at Macmillan are always available if you want to chat anything through, you can call them on 9800 808 0000. Best wishes
