Hi

I'm so sorry to hear what you're going through and for the loss of your son.
 

I too am waiting for an urgent follow up so know how hard it is. I finally had an ultrasound this afternoon which showed legions in my liver and adrenal glands. An urgent CT has been arranged for Monday and it seems forever!

I had an urgent breast lump referral last year and it was benign. I was told most are so please try not to worry (I know it's hard not to!) 

Take care and be strong. I hope it all turns out fine for you  x 

Firstly, I don't think you ever get over losing such a treasured loved one.  Four years on, and I miss my Dad every day. In fact, I found my dot on the anniversary of his passing.

Secondly, with boob bumps, gp has to refer you within 2 weeks. It's a nhs govt target thingy. So it sounds frightening, but if it does turn out to be cancerous, they will have caught it early and survival rates are extremely high.

So well done for going to the gp quickly because you just increased your survival chances if it is a cancer dot. 

During my 2ww, I spent time at work getting things straightened up and did the same at home. I focused my energy elsewhere and convinced myself my dot was just a harmless cyst. 

OK, I got a shock when I found out it's cancer, but it's been caught early and I know I'll get through it. It's brought other positives too, so my horrible big flabby boobies will be reduced and I'll be able to choose from a wider selection of bras.

Take care hon, be kind to yourself and do what makes you feel better 

Xxx

So sorry to hear about your son, as a mother of 2 girls 18 & 11 I can not even begin to imagine how you've got yourself through that but you have and here you are still fighting on. That to me would make you stronger than you give yourself credit for.

i am awaiting my 2 week referral in similar circumstances my appointment is on Thursday. I wish you all the best xx
