Mammogram and Ultrasound on Different Days

I have a mammogram booked tomorrow as I have a 20mm lump felt by GP and clinician. I thought the ultrasound would happen on the same day but its booked in for another 10 days time. Is this usual?

I’m also wondering how much I will know after the mammogram.

The waiting is tough, I really hoped it would all happen together. Thank you x

Hello and welcome. Sorry you find yourself here.

They can definitely tell some things just from mammograms you can ask on the day but it’s likely the images will be reported on later and guide your ultrasound. I’ve usually found the radiographers that do the ultrasound will share what they see.

Thanks so much for replying.

I’m hoping they can give me some indication tomorrow as I’m the sort of person that likes to have information, good or bad, rather then be wondering.
