I recently went to my g.p as I've not been feeling at all well..Tired, sore throat and chest and what feels like enlarged lymph nodes throughout my body. I had a full blood test and also handed in a vaginal swab, both came back as normal though on reading the results it did seem to suggest low level B12 or anaemia..
The nurse has also arranged for me to have a fast tracked gynaecological examination and a breast examination due to a lump I found in my right breast, the latter of which is tomorrow. When reading my online health records last night her inputs state "suspected gynaecological cancer" and "suspected breast cancer". Now I am absolutely petrified, I can't think straight and I just feel an absolute mess.
My mum died of metastatic breast cancer in 1996, aged 54 initially developing symptoms around 5/6 years earlier..I just feel so scared it's now happening to me and as I am already v petite and don't have much to me I really don't want any treatment..I want to go quickly if there's something badly wrong as my mum suffered horrendously and I think it's so wrong to put someone through all that and the memories left behind are hard to deal with.
