Nodules

I had a right mastectomy and LD Flap reconstruction 2 years ago due to widespread DCIS. I had my annual mammogram a few weeks ago and they have discovered nodules on my left breast. I have to go for an ultrasound this afternoon and I am very worried.

Has anyone else had this happen to them? I would appreciate a bit of reassurance. When I was originally diagnosed I was told that there was nothing wrong with me and they would just need to do a minor op to remove some cells. The end result was very different and came as a terrible shock. Now I have no faith in what the doctors tell me.

It would be very unlucky to have a new primary or even unluckier for a recurrence in the other breast. My sister had the same scare on her last mammo and it turned out to be benign, so remember, 8 out 10 lumps are nothing to worry about!

Thanks for that. I had my ultrasound and they discovered 4 benign cysts. Thank goodness it’s all over for another year!

hurrah
