Hello
I and new to this and awaiting my biopsy results.
I have seen my report from the ultrasounds and mammograms and it says M5 & U5.
i have also been reading about radial scars and wondering if they would get that score
I’m clutching at straws I think but it says they are very similar and the radiographer used the term star shaped which I’ve seen used to describe the scars.
Does anybody know anything about these radial scars?
Thank you xx
Hi Catyw welcome to the forum. The waiting for results of any kind is so hard and not one that any of us find easy so you are not alone.. Can I ask where you have gotten your information from? My main reason for asking is that lots of people go onto DR Google which is not individualised enough for each person, as they are all different and often end up scaring ourselves sometimes needlessly. . I'm not familiar with radial scars but I'm sure one of the other folks on here will pop in soon with some further information for you. Best wishes for now..Gail x
