Core Biopsy For Tissue In Breast. X-ray Taken. Cancer?
Hi, I had a core biopsy on Wednesday to determine if tissue in my breast that looked "pulled", was something to worry about or not. The Dr. taking the scan said it was a 50/50, she couldn't figure out if it was something that needed to be investigated or it was ok, and erred on the side of caution. It was "different" from my last x-ray, that's what they said. I don't go back for results until next Tuesday afternoon, and I can't sleep, because I have no clue as to weather I should be looking up the internet for chances that I have breast cancer!

Hi and welcome to HCM,thank you for your query.
Well,your doctor told you chances.no one can know for sure without results of biopsy but you have to hope and be patient till results are done. In many cases doctors and patient suspect of the worst but many times it is not necessary since most breast lesions are benign and I am sure it will be in your case too.
Wish you good health. Regards.
