Gemma's interview


How did all start?

I first had a lump examined 7 years ago. I was told it was benign. Phyllodes was not mentioned. When the lump became noticeably bigger this year I was re-examined and diagnosed with a malignant phyllodes tumour.

Do you already have a diagnosis? How long did it take you to get it?

I had a scan, mammogram and biopsy on 27th April and had a confirmed diagnosis on 4th May.
