I'm sure in a week and a half I'll be one of the lucky ones who posts a message to say I've got the all clear, but I'm frightened I've got IBC. I feel guilty writing this as I know so many of you are facing real fears. I just needed to vent. xx

hi laurie,
i'm scared too. you are not alone and you are completely valid in wanting to vent. we'll get through this together. message me if you want to talk x
Thanks for replying! What's going on for you?
I have (within the last few days) one breast larger than the other, and a significant amount of pain. x
i have pain in my side and the side of my left breast, it's like a bruised feeling but it can be quite sharp at points. i thought i could feel a lump but my doctor (i had two appointments) said she couldn't feel anything.
I'm sorry you're going through this, it sounds stressful and difficult. I'm really glad however that the GP doesn't seem concerned. If you still feel worried you could always ask for another appointment? Have you tried calling the helpline here? They may be able to help. x
i've had two appointments so far and i'm waiting to hear from the breast clinic for a scan anyway so it's all good. thank you so much x
What was your outcome?
hi!
i thankfully got the all clear and was told i had normal breasts. it was obviously a huge reliefc but i struggle with health anxiety so i still find myself worrying about whether something is wrong.
:) x
Thanks for replying
that's amazing news
I have similar symptoms so it gives me some hope
I also suffer with terrible health anxiety
aw bless you, have you spoken to your GP yet? x
