Mammograms

Thanks so much for sharing this. I'm due for my first post-treatment mammogram very soon.

Really pleased you had good news , could you feel the scar tissue ? My breast cancer was also 3 years ago with same treatment and my breast feels hard and lumpy . Clear mammogram last 2 years next one due in July . I always worry

Thank you for sharing, we need more stories like this as it really provides hope in uncertain times. 

Glad you are all ok and hoping it stays that way for you. 

Those 2 weeks must have been just so stressful and so glad the news was good.  Yeah!!

Hi Pam no I didn’t feel the scar tissue but am a great big coward when it comes to examination. I just wish they had said something like.’we feel this maybe scar tissue’ in the letter, rather than a blunt ‘abnormality’. Good luck with yours in July 

Thank you for this. I don’t want to give false hope to anyone but there are other reasons for a recall

Thanks Barbara very kind of u. Yes those 2 weeks were hell but I lost a few pounds through loss of appetite- always a positive somewhere 

I’m sure u will be fine. Fingers crossed for u 

Thank you so much for sharing this as it is reassuring to hear. I have my first mammogram next week following surgery and radiotherapy and am feeling anxious. I have  a bruised feeling coccyx and numbness in the inner top of my leg and have convinced myself my cancer has spread. I've been in letrozole since August and I restarted with back pain 4 weeks ago. Going to call the doctors Monday. Thank you again so much.  Sending my best wishes to all.

Hi I’ve always found that the anxiety of a possible return makes u ‘feel’ every ache and pain in your body and you convince yourself it’s bad news. It’s only natural and something we all share. Hopefully everything will be fine too. I wish you all the very best
