Hi all,
I need a place to unload my fears
I am 31 years old and found a lump in my breast about 9/10 weeks back. I saw my GP the next day, after examination etc it was agreed we wait until my period arrived & finished to re evaluate. Cut a long story short the lump was still there & a 2ww referral to the breast clinic.
At the clinic i had an examination(strangely brief) quick touch, ultrasound which clearly shown this lump/mass on screen, the technician called in another doctor they were discussing it & they told me they need to biopsy. They did a core cut biopsy and i have to go for my results Wednesday morning.
I'm terrified. Convinced myself its cancer & the most aggressive type. They did not say anything reassuring, except the kind nurse once the others had left told me try not to worry shes sure i will be fine & gave me a leaflet for fibroadenomas.
I've googled the hell out of breast lumps and mine definitely fits more to cancer. Its so so rock solid that my heart races touching it.
Also is it standard to book an actual appointment for the results on the way out, i thought if benign they could just tell me on the phone, i guess i am overthinking & assuming they already knew from the ultrasound. I dunno :neutral:
I'm struggling & going to be a nervous wreck going for the results.
Thanks
