Mid-September I found a breast lump, I went to the GP would said to come back in 2 weeks and she would see if there were any changes.
There were no changes so I was referred to see a surgeon who felt my breasts and detected other lumops but declared everything fine, she did an ultrasound and showed me cysts and fatty lumps. The surgeon then said I would have another ultrasound to see if any cysts needed draining.
The appointment came through and I cancelled it as I felt it was non-urgent and rescheduled for today.
The Dr performed the ultrasound and found another area of concern, I had a mammogram and then had a biopsy taken. Apparantly my breast tissue is very dense and the needle bent 6 times so I then had to have the sample taken with a tube type contraption.
The whole experience was totally unexpected and was not very pleasant but the staff were lovely. I am just so worried about what is there and whats going on.
To top it off I had not expected mammogram and biopsy and had my 3 year old with me who pretty much watched the whole biopsy thing and was as good as gold. I also forgot to put my parking ticket in my car as I was cutting it fine and got a fixed penalty.
Has been a v rubbish day!
