Hello Hun, I understand.....the mind immediately jumps to all the horrible conclusions....it's worth remembering that 8/9 out of 10 lumps are benign, and your young...try and take someone with you to the clinic...it will help occupy your mind...

and....it isn't anything until it's something....so calm your mind and try and deal with all the stuff you have in front of you now....xxxx

Hi Marlyn, 

Thank you so much. My friend is coming with me, and luckily my husband works in the same hospital, so I know I can call him down if need be. I just have such a terrible feeling. Over the years I've had a few lumps and always thought, how would I know if its not normal? But with this, it just feels so different to anything I've ever felt before. I just pray it is nothing. Thanks so much for your response and positivity xxxx

I'm glad you have someone going with you....let me know how you get on when you get a chance? 

Stay awayfrom dr google ( expect you've already consulted him) don't pay him any attention though.....

xxxx

Thank you. Of course, I'll be sure to post an update following my appointment. X

Hi! Your story is exactly the same as mine! I had a huge lump then after seeing a doctor I was referred. Still waiting for the appointment date to be confirmed... I did however come on my period and it shrunk, but now I can feel it even more prominantly so I believe I had some swelling that I usually get pre-period. I’m worked up over it all, googling all kinds of things, think I’ve already pre diagnosed myself with cancer before I’ve even had a scan....

im 32 so I’m hoping it’s just a cyst xx

Hey..... Oh bless you. The wait is awful isn't it! I'm trying to stay positive and keep an open mind, but my 'lump', if you can call it that, is such a weird shape that I just can't see how it could be anything other. I've had round hard bumps before which has turned out to be hormonal, but this is like a long nobbly stone with varying thickness. The waiting is driving me insane, I'm thinking the worse obviously, but part of me knows that chances are it's nothing serious. I'm sure, and sincerely hope, we are both fine and worrying for nothing! Keep me posted and stay strong x

Hey guys

So, tomorrow I finally go and get checked at the breast clinic. I just want the whole thing over with. The not knowing is driving me mad. I just hope it is nothing and the worry has all been for nothing. All the best to everyone else waiting for their appointments xx

Good luck tomorrow! I got a call today, my appointment is Monday at 10:40. Try to sleep some tonight, I know it will be hard and I’ll probably be tossing and turning on Sunday evening myself.....

let us know how you get on.... xxx

Oh fabulous, I'm so glad you have a fast appointment.... 3 weeks wait has been horrendous (apparently where I am the unit at my local hospital hasn't met the 2 week deadline in over 4 months, reassuring ey ) 

Thank you, I will update as soon as I know. Xxx

Yes I’m feeling relieved, told my boss today as well that I’d need Monday off and he was very understanding! Hope all goes well, that’s not good about the hospital!!! Xxxx
