Similar to @titch1 . If I’d had my husband with me he could have been in the room for the initial consult and examination. I had to wait in waiting room for mammogram & again for ultrasound. I’d have appreciated someone then as I needed to toilet but didn’t want to miss being called. I had to come back next day for biopsy as my appointment ran late & that person had left by the time they knew I needed one.
@purplemist79 You’re in great hands at Epping - they are truly wonderful and I had the absolute best care there 3 years ago. (Ongoing).
Exactly as @titch1 said, I had a lengthy chat with a breast specialist who then examined me. I was then sent for a mammogram, ultrasound and then I had biopsies. Back to see the specialist who went through everything again, and said my results would be back in 2-3 weeks. He was incredibly kind. My results appointment was 3 weeks later, where I saw the specialist again, together with my assigned breast care nurse.
My husband was with me at both appointments, but not present during the examinations, mammograms or ultrasound.
You can 100% trust that they will be very thorough and won’t leave a stone unturned.
I really hope they don’t find anything suspicious - wishing you lots of luck and sending hugs xx
To be honest, the mammogram, ultrasound and biopsy were pretty quick. Your husband will be with you while you’re waiting, and he’ll be with you when you’re speaking with specialist/ consultant, so he won’t be hanging around on his own that much
Please let us know how you get on. Take care xx
