The right side turned out to be absolutely normal and no issues.
The left side however showed 3 spots that are "probably benign." according to the doctor who read the results. He said that the protocol is to have a follow up ultrasound in 6 months. In his report he reported that they are "circumscribed hypoechoic mass with no internal doppler signal or posterior acoustic features." These 3 masses are smaller than the size of a pea. He described them as fibroadenomas.
Needless to say I am still anxious about these findings. Everything that I have read and seen says standard protocol is the waiting 6 months for a followup. It is going to be a long 6 months.
I understand you worrying but hopefully everything will be fine. My first mammogram showed what looked like sprinkling of something on the mammogram. I was 48 and had a biopsy and went from there.
ReplyDeleteI am hoping. The thing that worries me is that these fibroadenomas typically appear in younger women 35 and younger and go away as a woman gets older. I am 45 and just now finding them.
DeleteI’m praying your next mammogram will be perfectly fine! I know that waiting will be tough, though. I’m not a very patient waiter. Haha! In the meantime, we will pray! 🙏🏼❤️
ReplyDeleteThanks Mandy
DeleteI would be anxious, too. But, I am sure it is okay.
ReplyDeleteI am hoping.
DeleteGood news - so happy for you. Good luck to Rebecca. Those auditions remind me of my daughter's senior year.

ReplyDeleteWaiting is not my strong suit, but I will wait and pray.
DeleteI will be thinking of you the next 6 months, and expecting more good news.
ReplyDeleteThanks Anne.

DeleteWaiting has GOT to be the worst. I recently had to wait 2 weeks for my results. Worst weeks ever. The things that went through my mind. Hang in there. I hear ya!
ReplyDeleteWaiting is the worst. I hate waiting.
