Thanks for getting back in touch,it is a big worry,have you seen anyone yet about yours?
Shar!
Hi yes I had a mammogram yesterday so just waiting for results. I actually went to see my dr for other breast problems but he wanted to do a breast exam and found a small lump but I had never felt one myself. Think he was just being cautious as I have two sisters who have had breast cancer

Hi Shar sorry to hear your feeling so low , I was supposed to go breast clinic but because of anxiety issues I’ve gone the long route so have to wait ten days. When will your biopsi results be available? Take care x
Sorry hear your having such a stressful time it’s the waiting that’s the worse isn’t it. I’ve just spoke to a lady at the breast clinic she was trying to get my results earlier but because I was unable to attend the breast clinic and only the mobile unit I won’t be getting them till next Thursday or Friday.

Hi Shar how you feeling today.? X
Shar I totally understand why your panicking, it’s the unknown right now isn’t it? To be honest I’m that focused on my mammogram being ok anything else will knock me for six. I guess I’m clinging into what the lady told me who did the mammogram in the mobile unit x
