Hi all,

Hi, I have appointment on Tuesday too in Beaumont. Secretary called me yesterday said I'd an early appointment that wouldn't take long and didn't mention for me to bring anyone along either, so I'm assuming it's good news. I asked the same question here yesterday too and a couple of ladies replied. Breast wishes for Tuesday Ash x

I was there this morning.. examined and told I'd get an appointment for mammogram and ultrasound. She had a student with her. She said to him on a scale of 1 to 5.. 5 being definitely cancerous this would be a 3. Jesus so now wait for appointment again. Hope it went ok for you today.

Hi Bango78,
Its so hard waiting, especially as the Dr has kind of given you an indication. I was there too this morning and got my mammogram and 3d scan and ultrasound done today. So even though there's a "lump" Dr said nothing could b seen on scans..so I was sent home and asked to come back in a month, but if there are any changes I've to go straight in to them and not to wait the month. So... I don't really know.. I'm taking as good news for now 🤷🏻‍♀️
