I have just turned 40 yrs old. My very
best friend lost her battle to breast
cancer 2 yrs ago.At the very young age of
38.
Ever since then I have been very aware of
checking my breast's,
three days ago I found a large soft
movable lump in my right breast, not
painfull but feels large, well large to me
about size of 50 pence piece.Hard to tell
mind as when touch it moves around.
My Doctor has senn me this morning, he
thought it was about 2 cm but hard to tell
as mentiond it was very free to move
around.
Am waiting now for MRI and biopsy. Told
7-10 days.mean while as you all know the
wait hmmmmmmmm. I have a 2 yrs old boy,
who we all adore, but I keep going
somewhere else in my head, I relly dont
know where to turn, I have read lots of
posts, and keep telling myself things will
all be fine. But im up and down, there is
no family history of B C.
Its has been a bumoy ride these last few
27 months, my Mum took herlife just before
my little boy was born. I have found it
very hard to deal with.She was ill for
some time, depression etc. She lay on a
train track, no more to be said.
Any support welcome, with ref to the
waiting game, appontment MRI.thanks

Did they give you a mammgram or
ultrasound? If not why are they doing a
MRI of the breast? Biopsies are mostly
done under an ultrasound or a stereotactic
core needle biopsy. Some are done
excisional... Just curious. I hope all is
well. I know waiting is hard to do..
