I am 23 and had a lump in my breast for years… Just last year I went to my GP about it and they referred me to a breast clinic straight away… I was told the lump is benign and had an excison to remove it. Just two weeks ago I was called for a check up where the doc said they found another lump by my armpits… Lymph nodes or something… last time straight after the biopsy I was told ot was benign and this time that was not the case… The doctor also called in another doctor during my biopsy which has got me worried… They said I will get results in one week… But now my appointment is after two weeks… Do I have cancer or am I just paranoid?
Hi Brave,there are other explanations for swollen lymphnodes but I guess they are playing safe.Did the doctor do ultrasound as well?Sometimes they can say for sure what they are looking at is nothing to worry about,other times they cant be certain without a biopsy .Biopsies usually take a week so Im guessing last time they could tell from the other checks they did it was nothing to worry about.2 weeks is a long time to wait ,could you go to G.P after a week and see if they can push for results to put your mind at rest?Good luck.Jill.
Thanks jill xx they did ultrasound and biopsy both times, my appointment is this Thursday so two weeks nearly up… What will be will be *fingers crossed *
Let us know how you get on.
