Mama Geek Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 (edited) I found a lump last night in my bre@st. There is no family history of bre@st cancer, but I am still scared. I am calling in 20 minutes to try to get a doctor's appointment. I know it probably isn't anything, but I can't help but think about my dd and dh right now. I haven't told anyone IRL other than dh and won't unless it turns out to be something.

Mama Geek Posted October 29, 2012 Author Share Posted October 29, 2012 Thanks for all the support, today has been a long day and I figure tomorrow will be too. Maybe the doc can tell me something so I don't end up waiting longer to know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChiMomNP Posted October 31, 2012 Share Posted October 31, 2012 The doctor has scheduled me for a mammogram on Friday afternoon. My mind isn't any more at ease than before. :grouphug: I just went through this. Are you having a mammogram done at a place that reads them right away and can follow-up with an ultrsound if needed? That is so much better than having to wait for a potential call back. Is it possible to do the new 3-D mammogram? My NP insisted that I do that one and told me that it is better at detecting masses and helping in diagnosis of anything unsual. It takes slices of the breast and gives a clearer image. I has to call around, but was able to locate a facility that did them locally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mommyof4ks Posted October 31, 2012 Share Posted October 31, 2012 Waiting is so hard. :grouphug: I hope it is just a cyst or something like that. My grandmother has cysts removed about every 10 years, but so far nothing more has come of them, and she is 80. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The doctors office called and set up the appointment. I go back to the doctor on Tuesday after the tests on Friday. ETA: I did find out today that they have a reader on site and they will do the ultrasound right after if needed.
