Hi everyone, I found a lump in my left breast mid September and went to my gp who referred me to the breast clinic with an appt a week later. 
they did a mammogram and ultrasound which showed up calcifications and a swollen lymph node so they did a needle biopsy, unfortunately they couldn’t get the calcifications so asked me come back a week later for another biopsy under mammogram. I then had to wait another 2 weeks for the results. I got my cancer diagnosis last tues, it showed stage 1 in the lymph node and stage 0 in the breast but not able to find the primary. I have an appt a week on Monday for an MRI then another 2weeks for results and hopefully a plan of action. 
This has absolutely floored me and after telling my family the worst thing has been the waiting and uncertainty. I’m concerned that they can’t find the primary as they’ve not been able to see it up to now. 
thanks for reading xx
