Ultrasound Yesterday

Me again! Hi V,
me again! Quite surpised that you didn’t have both breasts scanned so that they could compare. Perhaps this is good news though, lets hope so! I think sinister things did show up on my mammo which is why they promptly started drawing all over me and sent me immediately for an U/S. If the person doing the scan says they don’t think its anything sinister then thats gotta be good. I’m sure they don’t say things like that lightly.
Will of course be thinking of you on the 20th. If you are not happy then please do insist they do further tets, like ultrasounds and biopsies. If only for your own peace of mind.
Take care and hope to hear from you soon,
Kelly

Hi Victoria Hi Victoria
just read your posting, it sounds as if you will get good news, I agree that maybe you should ask for further tests ie Biopsy if you feel that this will put your mind at rest, I will look out for your posting after the 20th let me know how you get on.
take care and good luck

For Victoria and Kelly Hi girls
The reason they don’t scan both breasts or a wider area is that cancer has very definite characteristics when seen on ultrasound. There is no need for comparison to normal breast tissue.
As my mammogram was highly suggestive of cancer I had an ultrasound of the entire breast tissue of both breasts. That wasn’t done for comparison - they were looking for other tumours. Fortunately they didn’t find any.
Victoria - if you think you will worry yourself silly I would request a biopsy when you see your surgeon next, even if he doesn’t think there is anything to worry about. Biopsy is the only way to tell FOR CERTAIN whether a lump is benign or malignant.
Fingers crossed for both of you.
