They are quick at calling one in. I saw surgeon in under a week from mammogram. Know you will be very worried and counting down the days to your appointment. No one can predict the verdict of your mammogram as only the consultant knows. They
May want to do more tests to check you out. Try to be positive.
You can ring Macmillan cancer care I did and they were really great . Be nice to know how you get on. Best of luck to you.
Ty. I rang the beast clinic today and I am still waiting for them to get back to me. Its the not knowing why they want me back especially to see the breast surgeon that worries me
How did your appointment turn out if you don't mind me asking
I was very lucky as they found two tumours heading towards each other, which resulted in mastectomy and a reconstruction..
Though it was hard and difficult to take in I am a survivor and still cancer free. It's been 5 years and 6 months now and so. gratefully it was picked up.
Ty not to imagine the worse it may only be a minor thing or
nothing at all. Waiting is the worst part of it. Your mind is in turmoil just now, but so many have been through this and come out the other side. Hear if you need me.
Have you had any news yet?
BRAVO Janet... I am a 16 year BC survivor . with implanr 5 years after mastectomy, (which is just now causing trouble hardening from old age ) Like me
Doctors told me then, after 2nd op and malignent lymph nodes I would not last 1 year ..who says they know better than the man upstairs?
Yes MacMillan Nurses are angels indeed Bless them they helped me laugh my way back to health...
keep on surviving hon Blessings xxx
