I’m just needing to vent a little. Hope it’s ok.
I was diagnosed with bc in 2009 and had a lumpectomy followed by radiation.
Everything has been going ok but after having my 2nd annual mammogram I have now received a letter calling me back again.
I know I may be jumping the gun. My appt is on Thurs but I am on edge and worried that this horrid disease has come back again.
Is it likely or am I just being a drama queen.
Thanks V
Oh V,
It is not that likely - I don’t know what the stats are but for mammogram screening recalls, it is only one in 9 or 10 that ends up in the club here, so for follow up mammograms it can’t be inevitable that it is a problem.
In fact must be more likely to be OK than not.
But at the same time lots of us know what it is like being recalled.
And that’s why no one is allowed to call us drama queens when we are going for a recall appointment.
Not even ourselves.
Hope you can be busy tomorrow or do somethinng really nice to distract you

Thanks for that Lavender Lassie. It’s just that it’s the exact way it happened last time.
Instead of going back to the place I had the mammogram they are sending me to York where the main hospital is.
It’s an early appointment so as long as i sleep it will be sorted early in the day. May be I’ll go shopping afterwards. We have just moved house so will always need something.My hearts in my mouth but thanks for your kind comments LL x
