I’m not diagnosed with BC but there is a slight chance I can be. I’m not sure where I should have post this but I just need some support. I just turned 40 on the 8th of June so I’m fairly new to the whole mammogram scene and the issues that can be found from those. About 4 years ago (age of 35), I did have some nipple discharge from one nipple that would only come out if I messed with it or forced it to come out. Well, I ended up freaking myself out over it and had a diagnostic mammogram and ultrasound done. At that time all they found was a prominent milk duct (aka dilated duct) with no other signs of cancer or issues. Fast-forward through the last 4 years I still Will manually try to get fluid out occasionally (dumb I know). Now, my Dr wanted me to get my annual mammogram done but bc of the dilated milk duct issue she made it a diagnostic mammogram with an ultrasound bc she wanted to prevent me from having a “call back”. During the mammogram the radiologist saw a small group of pleomorphic calcifications in the upper part of that same dilated duct. They couldn’t see them in the ultrasound too well so he recommended a stereotactic biopsy. I do have the biopsy scheduled for 07/01. I am a natural worrier and overthinker. Every worse case scenario has been going through my mind driving me nuts w/anxiety and of course I have obsessively looking at the infamous “Dr.” Google which is making it 100× worse. What are my chances that this calcification is benign

Every case is individual and its natural to be worried. I had calcification of the nipple and the biopsy was not cancerous.
I have had breast cancer and if it is youve found it early and treatment will be in good tome.
Good luck.
Helllo I had breast cancer 2 years ago I have had biopsies for some calcification I get the results on Tuesday. Don’t google it causes more stress. Stay positive keep busy. Just remember whatever the out come the team your under will always do their best xx
