Hi, 

Just want to say hope everything works out ok for you. 
I'm not in the same situation with you regarding finding a lump but just waiting on diagnosis for two masses found on my kidney & adrenal gland.

I totally get what you say about not wanting to be a Debbie downer at home I'm doing the same putting on a brave face.

Hi Worried and Fudge,

I am sorry to hear why you're both here. Waiting to be see and then waiting for a diagnosis are  the worst parts of a cancer journey. I lost my mum to cancer and completely went to pieces when I was first diagnosed. That was 13 years ago. I had a second bout of breast cancer the following year. I am pleased to say that diagnosis, treatment and aftercare have all improved dramatically since my mum had it. I now lead a busy and fulfilling life.

The possibility of a cancer diagnosis affects the entire family. Not all lumps are cancerous. There are other reasons such as cysts and fibrous changes. It is a fact that only 2 people out of every 10 who attend the breast clinic, will receive a cancer diagnosis and the younger you are the less likely you are to be one of them. Unfortunately, there are no guarantees, so you are both doing the right thing by getting investigated.

Please keep in touch and let us know how you both get on. We are always here for you.

I'm keeping my fingers crossed for both of you!

Kind regards,

Jolamine xx
