Hi, new to the group.

Last year found a lump was referred to Breast Clinic and had an ultra sound which showed nothing. Noticed the lump has now grown considerably and referred back to breast clinic. Attended clinic on Monday and although the lump still cannot be seen on Mammogram and ultra sound there was an area of suspicion. Had a core biopsy and told they think it might be lobular. Have a MRI booked for Sunday and then results next Wednesday. Dont know what to think, thinking the worst! Anyone else had the same?

  • Hi Dido1 I have lobular cancer and it showed up on the mammogram, ultra sound it was 4cm so quite big.  I believe that sometimes lobular cancer doesn't show up on the normal scans.  I had MRI before treatment to check it hadn't spread to other breast.  Good luck for next Wednesday, take someone with you.  Let us know how you get on.

  • Thank you, hopefully know more after the MRI on Sunday, I will let you know when I go next Wednesday, my husband is coming with me! What treatment did you have?

  • Hi I had a lumpectomy and sentinel node removal, with one node affected.  I had chemo then radiotherapy.  I always take my husband with me to oncology appointments.
