Hi I have been refered to a breast clinic and have been waiting 1 week and have had no appointment yet. Has anyone else waited as I have heard people normally get the appointment letter quickly.
Hi Gemma,you have the same name as my daughter, which I think is a lovely name. I've just read your post and I see yoir appointment is sheduled for the 18th April,which is thisThursday, so im so glad you will be seen soon. The waiting is hard,I remember my time of waiting for my first 2ww breast clinic appointment so I know how you will be feelimg, nervous,anxious with a mind that doesn't shut off,and sleepless nights, and tiredness from those. But it doesn't always turn out to be cancer,there are many other things it may be,it could be a cyst . Bit if it does turn out to be breast cancer like mine was in 2020, yes its a shock,my head was all over the place,but thrn my level head kicked in ,telling me at least its been found( I found my lump) and it was confirmed and caught early and a treatment plan could be put in place,once size of tumour ,grade anf tyoe were confirmed from the biobsysi had ,and that's better than if it hadn't and had been left .to grow and spread even more than it had.
But I do hope it isnt cancer, but what ever the outcome,you've done the best thing by getting it checked out . Will be thinking of you on the 18th, I will be getting my bloods tested, as I have got a fatty liver now as well as a small cyst on my liver.
Always popping on here from time to time, let me know how you get on at beeast clinic praying that all will be ok for you .
Hi saw your reply to Madfy and Gemma,and like Maddy I see yoir appointment is on Wednesday I will be thinking of all three of you,and praying that it's not anything sinister . Good luck CatLW.Here if you need to chat.
Oh Gemma I'm.so sorry to hear this you don't need this added worry. I do hope you can get there. Can you not call the hospital appointments line if you don't know the number go through to the main switch board and ask to be put through to appointments. Explain what's happened and that you would struggle to get to this appointment and see if thry can give you another appointment at the hospital you originally was going too. But I know if that means waiting longer by a week or so that would just add to yoir stress but if it was only a few days later it might be easier. It's worth a try or maybe you can reach out and ask a family member or friends if they could take you hope it all works out for you. Xx.
I had my appointment yesterday as managed to get a cancellation and they have said it is breast cancer and it has spread to my lymph nodes. Only one lymph node is affected. I am absolutely devastated and shocked.
