On January 4th 2010 I went to Lister to meet with the consultant as per my referal from the GP.
He could not get any conclusive results from his examination and referred me to the QEII for an ultrasound and potential biopsy of the lump.
On February 1st I went to the Vicki Adkins unit in the QEII Hospital and had an ultrasound which showed 2 areas in the breast tissue that were unclear. The nurse decided it would be necessary to do a core biopsy test on both areas (i.e. 2 samples from each lump).
This was fairly painless (until the local anasthetic wore off) but was uncomfortable. I bruise like a peach anyway so had a rather tasty green bruise afterwards.
Then it was a 2 week wait until my results.
I was relatively unconcerned at this stage to be honest and almost completely forgot about the more serious implications this could have.
