Hi ..
I noticed a dimple on the side of my breast 2 weeks ago, about the size of a thumb, GP was very good and got me in the same day for an examination. She said she could feel a "cord" which I hadn't noticed before. Due to my age (32), no family history, breastfed two babies etc she said she didn't know what I was worried about and thought it would resolve itself but she would like me back to check again.
I went back today and she said she could no longer feel the cord (which I still hadn't really been able to pin point myself) and has now sent me for an urgent referral because the dimple is still there.
I suffer general anxiety anyway which I am medicated for but I'm so worried/scared and I don't know why because I can't change the outcome of what the result will be! I have researched, googled and read countless threads on here looking for reassurance but has anyone experienced dimpling alone and it's not been the worst outcome?
I know they're going as fast as possible but 2-4 week wait seems a life time. I just keep thinking it's definitely cancer. My partner has been great but I'm so conscious of offloading anxiety on him when he already deals with so much of my (unrelated) worries. It's made me realise I don't really have friends anymore too as there's no one I can really talk to! :cry:
