Hello, I had a lumpectomy followed by a single mastectomy almost two years ago. It has taken me a long time to bounce back but for about three months I was starting to feel like I could live my life. Yesterday I received a call to say they want me in on Friday to discuss the results of my annual mammogram. I was beginning to dream that I could live free of this and now again, I sit here, stomach churning, mind racing, thinking the worst. At least I understand it now and I have an idea of the kind of things I am in for but that isn’t preventing me from spiralling anxiety. It is only a couple of days before I find out how bad it is but that already feels too long. I suppose I am writing on here because it’d be good to hear about others’ experiences, good and bad of recall after mammogram on the remaining breast.
I feel like I have been physically kicked in the stomach, just as I felt I was able to move forward.

Will be thinking of you tomorrow, hope all goes well.

Dear Laneyclass,
So sorry to read you are feeling so anxious at the moment quite understandable, will be thinking of you, fingers crossed for a good outcome.
Take one day at a time, be kind to yourself, please come back to let us know how your getting on.
With the biggest hugs Tili 
Thank you @chillout365 and @Tili for your kind words. They said they could see a shadow on my mammogram which is actually far less alarming than my racing mind had imagined. I do wish they would give an indication over the phone so you are not left hanging with negative thoughts running wild! I’ll have a 3D mammogram and ultrasound in the next two weeks. so big fingers crossed xx
Dear laneycass.
Wishing you lots of luck for a good outcome,
enjoy the weekend, hopefully you have sunshine.
Remember we are always around for you.
Love Tili
