I just went today and had a mammogram and an ultrasound, and the tech felt the lumps, but the ultrasound did not pick them up, last week I was in to see the oncologist, and she felt the lumps as well, and that is why this was ordered. I don't know what to do because I did have breast cancer. I haven't met my 5 year freedom yet. From it and I am unable to take the estrogen blockers. So I am at very high risk.Again. I just don't know what to do.I'm scared

@dianez4912 if you just had that test today, it is likely that next steps are coming. I know how hard it is but try to be patient. If you don’t feel safe with the testing that is done and the doctor doesn’t order follow up. My next step would be to ask the doctor specifically, how can I get a definitive answer, because I lose sleep without that.
Is this in the same location as your previous breast cancer?
