Hello, I noticed a hard lump in my breast and waited a few weeks to see if it went away after my period which it didn't, I had a gp appointment she did an exam and said it feels like a nodule/nodular what does that mean? She seemed concerned and said she could feel something in the other breast too so referred me under the 2 week 'suspected breast cancer' to the breast clinic, I haven't received an appointment yet so rang the breast clinic and she said they are over run with referrals and I will probably be waiting longer than two weeks for my appointment and wont even be told when my appointment will be for another week or so, my anxiety is so high about this as I am a single mum of two young children and the wait is going to be so hard. I thought it was a rule you had to be seen within 2 weeks from referral or is that just a guideline? I wish I could afford a private scan but I can't find any information on how much that would even cost does anyone have any idea?
Many thanks
