Hi all, I’m looking for some reinsurance or someone who has been in the same situation.

I had lobular cancer of the right breast which was removed, then radiotherapy. I have just had my yearly screening (MR)I and they have found something in the left breast and right lymph nodes. I have an ultrasound appt this Thursday.

i am trying not to worry but that is easier said then done. Has anyone been through this?

  • I am so sorry to hear this Fannyanne,  I think lobular cancer is so hard to pick up other than on MRI.  I had lobular breast cancer and I know it is a sneaky cancer.  I hope you have good results tomorrow.  Will be thinking of you , please let us know how you get on.

  • Thank you so much for your reply. I hope to get some news tomorrow as the wait for results can be crippling. Lou x

  • I haven't experience of lobular but know the waiting pain. I have severe mobility issues and have to force myself to leave the house. I got my PET scan results yesterday at 4:45... I left home at 8:30 for a one hour journey to stop myself hoovering my garden! Saturday I weeded. Sunday I cut the grass. Monday I Re-cleaned the house. So by Tuesday?

    I'm hoping beyond hope that it's the news you want

    Good luck luv

    Love and hugs to all

  • Bless you, you’ll have nothing to do but gut the kitchen and give it a good spring clean.

    Thank you very much. I hope you get your results through soon xx

  • Yesterday. Now awaiting the oncologist next Tuesday. Appt 5:30 so my nerves will be ...... by the time I've finished breakfast. If my legs & spine take the day off, I might challenge myself to go shopping on Oxford Street and NOT spend anything. 

    Good luck in your journey 

    Love and hugs to all

  • Good luck with that. The moment you think you’ll spend no money is the one time you’ll over spend. I wish you all the best and good luck for Tuesday, such a long wait xx

  • I had my appt today and they did an ultrasound on both breasts, they are not worried about the right breast I think it is just inflamed from previous treatment. However, they have taking 6 biopsies on the left side and I have to wait for a week for the results. I just need to be patient. 

  • Thinking of you and hoping all is well. 

  • Hi Sandra, thank you for checking in. Not great news. I have been told that it is cancer but I won’t find out to what extent until the appt which I’m hoping is this week xx

  • Waiting is draining. I shall be thinking of you.

    Best wishes
