Hi folks, I’m new here, been lurking for a couple of days. I had a recall appointment this week at the breast screening clinic after a routine mammogram. They carried out further mammogram and ultrasound and said there is an area of concern of approximately 9mm.  A biopsy was carried out and a marker placed, I’m awaiting appointment now for results and next stage.  I was given various leaflets and also information on The Small Study as the Dr said I would likely be asked if I would like to participate. Has anyone had any experience of this? 
I’m also anxious if my result is positive as I suffer from heart failure too and concerned that will be an added complication with any meds.  I know I’ve not had the results yet but I always like to be prepared. 
Many thanks for reading!
