  • Hi Welshy,

    Welcome to Cancer Chat.I am sorry to hear about your latest finding. Have you tried asking your GP for a home visit? If necessary, mention your agraphobia to the receptionist?

    If the doctor won't come out, do you have a family member or friend who might take you along to the doctor? Having had cancer before, you know that if there is any cancer there, this will necessitate several visits to the hospital. Hopefully, this is just an infection, which can be easily healed up at this stage. 

    An infection in your breast can be extremely sore and you don't want it to progress to something more sinister. For this reason, you really do have to take responsibility for your own health and take yourself to your GP.

    I sincerely hope that you can force yourself to see your GP - Surely, this is better than the alternative?

    Please let us know how you get on. We are always here for you, whenever you want to talk.

    Kind regards,

    Jolamine xx
