  • Hi scotty61, 

    I am so sorry your sister passed away - this must have been so traumatic for you nursing her until she sadly passed away from cancer. It's not surprising that this would have made you feel anxious and suffer from health anxiety. You did well though to get this sore breast checked and it's reassuring that they said it was just a cyst which they drained and it was nothing to worry about. You are also doing the right thing in going back to the doctor's next week after you noticed the pain has come back again and feel worse so it's important to get this looked at again just for your peace of mind. I hope that you will hear from others here who have had similar symptoms and that they will pop by and share with you what their pain felt like. 

    Best wishes and best of luck for your appointment next week - keeping everything crossed for you!
