Hi all,
I've managed to land on here tonight after many failed attempts to calm my mind and go to sleep.
Today after several months trying to get a gp appointment regarding a rash on my left boob and pain and most recently a lump ( my pharmacist has treated the rash with hydrocortisone cream, clotrimizole cream and a flucanazole tablet for the last few months with now improvement) I successfully seen my GP.
The GP was lovely and agreed that the rash did resemble that of a fungal infection however the pain sounded like mastitis (I've never breast fed nor do I have children but learned it is possible to have this still). She found a second smaller lump alongside the one I had found and although I don't have a full nipple inversion it is split she has was initially going to try me with another cream but has decided it best to referr me to a clinic.
I've no idea what to think, expect or how to not keep checking myself to see if I've missed more. I have no idea how to calm myself for 2 weeks or how long you generally wait after the appointment to know more.
I feel a bit like a deer in headlights just now.
