Anyone else

I had lumpectomy in October 2012 ended up being FEA and some other benign findings, don't have my results in front of me but it was microcalcifacations and such, now nearly four years later after having all clear mammos, I have to go back on June 29 for another mammo and ultrasound on the same breast near the same area they see a 8mm nodular opacity. Pretty scared because the surgeon made the comment to me "pretty sure we got it all" on the biopsy in 2012, which didnt give me alot of comfort except that she did remove 3 specimens and my mammos have been clear since. My ob/gyn said it could be a shadow or scar tissue. I have heterogenously (sp?) dense breast, so just hope I havent had something growing since 2012. From this point on I plan to go to another facility and have the 3d mammos just hope I havent made this decision too late......

I too have dense breasts. I m 37 years old and felt a lump in my breast. I went to the dr and he said sure it was nothing but sent me for a mamo and ultrasound. The mass is a fibroadenoma. But in my other breast ( the left)they found a discrete focal cluster of microcalsifications that are "somewhat" pleomorphic with no associated soft tissue dencity. In the report the radiologist said he suspects they are b9 and are due to my fibrosis in other breast but referred me to a specialist. That was yesterday. Today I got a call from the specialist and was told I need to come for a biopsy and mamo. I m really nervous. Like they called so fast. I m terrified. I m trying not to think of the what is but I have 3 children and I have mixed messages. Trying to relax but easier said then done. I m glad I found this page. Sorry for rambling. I may have even posted in the wrong spot

sarakatchewan, I felt the same way, the first call back i recieved, everyone seemed to act different and moving fast to biopsy and it turned out to be benign. Try not to worry, i know its hard because here I go again and cant help but worry. Prayers for you!

me too, its nice to talk to people who know exactly what you are going through! There are some amazing women on this site, i feel embarrassed for being weak at times when they all seem so strong!

Sara that is great news! Mine turned out to be a cyst, the waiting and worrying was horrible, thought I was going to lose it! Im still wondering if I should go to a specialist for a second opinion, I will decide this week. I have been told that a cyst is easy to diagnose by ultrasound. The tech and the radiologist both told me it was a cyst. Im just a worrier and cant seem to stop but I am relieved and praise God everyday!

So just wondering any of your thoughts on getting a second opinion from a specialisit when local hospital radiologist diagnosed it as a benign cyst. Im a worry wart and dont want the specialist to think im crazy and I just cant decide whether or not to get a second opinion.

Thats what I have learned from Dr. Google as well and I was told that by the tech then by the radiologist. I just worry that it is being caused by something more serious in there somewhere. Thanks your response Melissa.
