2 ww

Hi, 

I am very anxious about a 2ww cancer referal for breast cancer. I have a solid lump in the right armpit and swelling all along, recently the breast/neck and back have started to have a dull ache, not painful. I have had other strange symptoms too, random swelling on my face/neck/throat that I have put down to allergies now I'm not so sure. Have been having terrible night sweats and sweating more in the day too, headaches and a weird feeling/pressie in my throat. 
 

unfortunately it's been 2 weeks now and no appointment yet, I will call and ask Monday as anxiety is getting the better of me. 
 

Has anyone experienced symptoms that I have? If so what was the outcome/results for you? 
 

many thanks for any responses, I know everyone has lots going on at the moment. 

  • Hello there and thanks for posting

    I am sorry to hear about the symptoms you have and appreciate this must be a worrying time for you.

    Waiting for tests and not knowing what is going on can be unsettling so do try and call your GP surgery or hospital today to chase this up. There are some delays in being seen but hopefully they will have a date for you soon.

    Unfortunately no one here can say what these symptoms are being caused by and even if people have been through similar there could be a number of reasons, so it really is impossible to compare.

    Try and take each day as it comes and see what the breast unit and any test reveals.

    I hope you don't have to wait too much longer and find out more very soon.

    Do get back in touch if you have more questions or if you prefer give us a call on 0808 800 4040, we're here weekdays 9-5.

    Best wishes

    Naomi
