Hi there
Sorry to hear that you have been dealt with in this way, the likelihood is that it benign but there is a chance it’s not. I hope he has referred you, with urgency (you must be seen within 2 weeks at the most).

Can I suggest you post any worries here and all the wonderful people will do what they can to answer them.

Also there are numbers to call on this site (0808 800 6000) to speak to someone immediately who will be able to help you with your queries.

Lots of hugs xx

Hi tinka rae

Welcome to the Breast Cancer Care discussion. Below I have added the link to the BCC booklet ‘referral to a breast clinic’ It has information on the different tests you may have.

breastcancercare.org.uk/healthcare-professionals/publications/quick-order-list/*/changeTemplate/PublicationDisplay/publicationId/59/

As SM422 has mentioned BCC also have a help line where you can share your worries and concerns with a trained member of staff who will offer you support and information. The lines are opem Monday to Friday 9 to 5 and Saturday 9 to 2.

I hope this helps.

Best wishes Sam, BCC Facilitator
