Hi, i was just wondering if any of you ladies had heard of anyone as young as 19 being diagnosed with BC, my best friends daughter found a lump a couple of weeks ago and has been for a biopsey but has to wait 2 weeks for the result.
I had my own results the next day after biopsey so am hoping that this means the doctors are not too worried about her. She also had a baby in July so wonder if that could have made her breast lumpy although she is not breast feeding.
Obviously this is all very worrying for my friend and I especially after what i have been through myself, just wondered if anyone could help.
When I was given my diagnosis I said I thought I was too young (ripe old age of 33) and the consultant surgeon did say that the youngest patient he’d had was 19 but it’s rare at that age I’m sure. I also had to wait a week for the result from biopsy so I’m afraid it is possible but not that likely so keep the fingers crossed.
Just thought i would let you know as you were so kind to post that my friends daughter has a large cyst, so thank God nothing horrid. The worry was that she had lost her grandmother to BC.
