I'm scared! Multiple findings. My fear is that I have late stage invasive cancer.

I'm 51 and really scared! Had a mammogram call back for changes seen since last mammo. I go back for the repeat mammo tomorrow.

Had a CT scan which showed "enlarged, slightly modular uterus to 12 cm with a cyst on my left ovary. Also, a "probably benign" 1 cm indeterminate sclerotic focus in the T8 vertebral body, may be a bone island or related Schmorl's node type irregularity." It also noted "early lung base emphysema" and a "small non-obstructing kidney stone."

My fear is that this is breast cancer that has spread all over. My lymph nodes frequently feel enlarged and are a uncomfortable from time to time (underarms, left breast and neck).

25 yrs ago I had a needle biopsy for some fiber type cysts of my left breast. They said it was benign. 20 years ago I had to have my right ovary removed due to a very large cyst (orange sized). It was benign. Also, a cone biopsy for some per-cancerous cells. Paps have been fine ever since. most recent 1 month ago.

Again, I am really scared. Waiting for information from the dr's is driving me crazy. Dr. wants me to go in for a colon endoscopy as I've had some blood in my stool (most likely due to a first time hemorrhoid that was discovered.)

It this too much or too coincidental? Is it painting a picture of someone with late stage cancer that has spread to many areas? Am I simply jumping to conclusions?

Please, someone tell me if you have a gut level feeling about this. Please!

Thanks, and sorry to be a so long winded and such a baby.

Amazing how the imagination can get away from you (me!).

Thank God my 2nd mammo turned out fine! They said more than likely my symptoms/CT findings along with the 1st mammo wouldn't have been related anyway. I was picturing wide spread cancer...boy, am I a nut!

I still have to address the CT findings, but I am feeling so much better!

God's best blessings to those waiting for their results!
