Waiting for my diagnosis

I had my mammogram, ultrasound and biopsy 1 underarm and 3 samples from lump on Wednesday. Ive got a lump in the right breast along with several other changes. Inverted nipple, lump, right breast  sitting higher than left and a crustiness and dimpling around the nipple.

I was told it was suspicious and will see consultant on Friday for results. 

Have  cried buckets but am resigned - I think. 

Not as serious but to be thrown into the mix I also had a heart monitor and echogram done back in June. I’m told I might need a pacemaker and I have a cyst on my liver. Have an abdominal  ultrasound booked for October 1st 

  • Hello Debknits, 

    I am sorry to hear you are having to wait for these important results at the moment and I can imagine the wait is truly agonizing. It must be all the more stressful as you also have to take into account these other health issues that have affected you recently and I hope the abdominal ultrasound goes well on the 1st of October. 

    I know it is really hard as they told you it looked suspicious but try not to worry too much or anticipate what it might be. The best thing to do to avoid thinking too much about this is to keep busy and distracted if you can this week and avoid looking things up online. I can imagine it is hard for you to do this at the moment but it will help you feel a little less anxious. 

    I hope you will also hear from others here who have been through all this before and that they will be along soon to share their story with you. 

    Keeping everything crossed for you that everything turns out fine. 

    Best wishes,
