Jean, can I just say - at least they're keeping an eye on you, rather than just waiting. Perhaps keep thinking of that.
Keep us posted, won't you. Good luck!

Thanks for the speedy replies, i have to admit to being terrified. My sister has just passed her 5 yrs free from breast cancer and 2 of my aunts died from the same thing.
My GP seems to think they may go straight for scan or taking a sample because of family history
I'm 54 now and have never had any health probs before, other than arthritis and the usual stuff.

Love
Jean xx

Hi Jean. If you're talking about breast screening, it's a lot better than it used to be! Is that what you mean, before I reassure you?
By the way, I've had several scares in years gone by (I'm 51 now), and thank God each time, it's turned out to be a cyst. I'm a worrier, so I do know the feeling! :-((((

I found a lump in my breast, been to the GP and have been given an appointment for the breast clinic on May 8th.
I suffer from panic attacks and would like to lnow what happens when i go to the clinic......if i have an idea of the procedure, i can "mentally prepare" myself up for the actual day.

Thanks

Jean xx
