Going out of my mind

Sorry for the long winded post but i feel like im going crazy.

So june 2019 i found my first lump in my breast and was referred for a mammogram i was told i was too young for a mammogram so would be given a scan instead after which i was told it was just a cyst and nothing to worry about.

Last week i was referred back again for a emergency mammogram as I now have 3lumps in the same breast and sever swelling under my armpit aswell as pain in my collarbone.

Upon arrival i was again advised i am too young for a mammogram im almost 35. So again the scan was repeated but the nurse that did the scan forgot to print off photos so the consultant did not see them he just took her word that nothing sinister was found as it was 5pm i believe it was rushed and i did not feel happy with the explanations that it was normal hormonal changes in my body or down to the fact i drink to much coffee.

Please tell me im not bonkers feeling like im getting nowhere i have a family history of cancer and i am a single mother to a 5year old so my anxiety levels are through the roof 

  • Hi ... your quite normal, and I can understand that scary emotion ...

    Hopefully they are right, as it is very rare for breast cancer at a young age ... but it is not impossible, we have had quite a few diagnosed on here ... so if I were you, I'd talk to Dr and calmly but firmly say you are not happy with what she did .. she should have sent copy to oncology team weather good or not ... 

    It's your heath it's your body ... stick to your gut feeling and say you want a mamorgram.... and fingers crossed .... try not to panic ... sending you a vertual hug.... Chrissie x

  • Thank you for your kind words its just frustrating as it may not be anything sinister but there is a reason for the pain swelling and lumps and i feel ive just been fobbed off with hormonal changes in my body
