Hi, I absolutely know how your feeling it is frightening when you feel a lump. You definitely do need to phone the doctors in the morning even if it turns out to be nothing it will put your mind at ease.

Hope everything goes well for you, Good luck and best wishes 

Thank you for replying. 
I've made it sore now and it's swollen a bit as I keep prodding and poking it about. 
Im googling everything I can and I know it's not helping but I can't help it I feel like I need to know what I'm going into? 
i just have a bad feeling about it all!!! 
 

Hi, I was exactly the same by going on Google and trying to find out but I think it just makes you feel worse and makes you start thinking the worse. Poor love you. Try not to go prodding it to much though, I know it's difficult as you know it's there. I was exactly the same as you so I know how you must be feeling. 

If you need to chat im here x

Thank you for taking the time to reply to me. Sorry if this is rude but did your lump turn out to be cancer? When I first found it this morning I had to really prod it, it feels like a lump of tissue but as the days gone on and I've poked it my boob feels swollen! 
 

No its fine, yes im stage 2 breast cancer. Im having mastectomy on Thursday, and lymph glands removed. My lump I could and can feel straight away its about 6cms. Yours could just turn out to be a cyst. It's better if you try not to poke it as thats making it swollen. Im sure the doctor will be able to help you tomorrow x

Thank you, good luck to you Thursday bless your heart there's me going on that I don't even know anything yet and you're having to go through this. Lots of love and thank you again I will let you know tomorrow x

Thank you very much. I hope what I said helps a bit until you go to doctors.

Good luck x

So went to the GP this morning, he said I need to be checked at the breast clinic, and am now on the 2 week pathway. He wasn't overly sure but said it's best to get it checked. Now the waiting. I feel physically sick and I feel like o need to prepare myself for the bad news that's coming. 

I'm glad you've been to doctors. Hopefully you won't have to wait too long. I had appointment about 2 weeks later after doctor referred me. I know the waiting is hard tho, as everything goes around in your head. Im here if ever you need a chat xx

Thank you, he couldn't see any lump, or marks or anything like that and said the lump moved about but all lumps are different x

I feel absolutely terrified tonight I've read so many stories and watched so many videos about women having cancer that they was told was "nothing to worry about" 

I don't know how I'm going to endure the 2ww to see the breast clinic I can't eat sleep focus all I keep doing is googling and touching the lump 

Hi scared to sleep , try not to worry , if you could book a private clinic they do a mammogram , if anything is on the mammogram they do biopsy and ultrasound straight away my first appointment was 40 mins they done all that and they told me it was suspicious within that time I had to them wait only one week after for biopsy results so that's pretty quick . If that could stop you worrying it maybe worth going private for that part , if anything is found tgey can transfer you back to nhs but hopefully it isn't anything but would stop you having to wait good luck xx 

Hi, I recently had a similar scare. Moveable lumps in both boobs AND a thickened area. GP couldnt feel it but referred to breast clinic anyway. Dr felt it straight away and referred to ultrasound. Turned out to be cysts and dense breast tissue. You probably know that 9/10 trips to the breast clinic do not result in a cancer diagnosis. I'm in my thirties with two kids too. When I was feeling very anxious I reminded myself that breast cancer is treatable in most cases and that I would cope with any outcome. And the truth is- you would. The waiting is the worst bit. You must spend time with peopl and distract yourself with tasks you like to do. It will be OK. Xxx

Thank you for replying, There isn't any private clinics where I live and I don't think we'd be able to afford it anyway what with things the way they are.
