Mammogram after lumpectomy

Not a good time for you @Jo_H, as it is quite an uncomfortable thing, both the test and the waiting for results. You have anxiety, and rightfully so. Chances are everything is going to be ok, but your body is preparing you for a dreaded situation. So let it. Don’t fight the anxiety too much, it’s there for a reason. Just tell yourself you have every right to be anxious and worried, and see if there’s anything you can do to minimise it. As the ladies suggested, telling the radiographer is one thing you can do, which will no doubt be very helpful. They’ll look after you. Taking the panadol is another. Doing breathing exercises might help too. Keeping busy. And in the end, just tell your anxiety it can stay if it wants, but you’re just going to continue doing the things you normally would. It can keep you company. Then just do your thing. It will pass quickly enough 🍀♥️
