Hi I'm just looking for some support to help my 36 year old wife who is currently going through a diagnosis.
Nov 2019 she found a lump in left breast. Went to see private consultant who said nothing to worry about fibrous breast tissue as she was breast feeding. I remember him saying she just had lumpy breasts.
So she didn't do anything and had a breast augmentation march this year as she always had small breasts since breast feeding our two children and it caused her a lot of mental anguish.
When the swelling died down she noticed the lump seemed more pronounced so booked in another consultation just in case. We thought again they would say same as first consultant. But they were concerned and had her have a ultrasound and mamogram. We then had to go on holiday for 10 days as it was pre booked and didn't want to let our kids down a d when we returned we had to go for biopsy.
While there they told us they are pretty sure it's cancer as they're is 8cm lump as well as something behind nipple and and lump further down breast so they took 2 biopsy in total. We go back foe the results this Thursday. My wife and I are both devastated. We have a 4 year old and 8 year old. I'm so worried that it's spread as she says she is having discomfort in her stomach. They said that they couldnt see lymph node involvement on the scans but i dont know how accurate that is? She is really struggling with anxiety and depression.she is so scared it's breaking.
I think I'm just looking for advice how I can help and be strong.
Sorry for the essay any advice would be much appreciated.
