Hi, I found a breast lump about a month ago. I went to see me GP who referred me to the breast clinic, got my appointment 2 weeks late, had an ultrasound and biopsy and was told, the lump needs to come out a week later and that there is 95% chance it is nothing to worry about. So off I went for the excision about ten days ago, just before the op was told it is very superficial so had to go for another ultrasound to be marked for where to cut. While I was waiting for ultrasound could hear the consultant talking about my lump as it c3 nodule. So now I am waiting for my results, I am so scared, I am 31 and have got a 6 year old daughter. Can anybody had similar experience, please let me know, as i am terrified. Thank you Lucie
