Hi everybody.
I'm just wanting to share what's going on as I am extremely worried. On Saturday night I was having a shower and somehow felt a lump in my right breast. It feels round or oval, like a smooth ball and it rolls around under my fingers when I feel it. It doesn't hurt although both of my breasts are pretty tender at the moment due to me being due on my period so just regular tenderness. I don't have any others. I went to GP Monday morning and I was extremely upset in the consultation. The GP was very kind and said it is mobile and this is reassuring, and to her it feels like a fibroadenoma, however it is protocol to refer under 2ww to make sure. The hospital rang me 3 hours after referral and my appointment at the breast clinic is on Monday at 10am. I am so so anxious, I've completely lost my appetite since I found the lump and I feel like I have back and neck muscular pain which I assume is stress but then I am Questioning whether this is to do with a cancer that has spread. I have 3 young children, I am 31 and I am struggling on how to cope. I have just qualified as a nurse this week and I feel that I am so anxious that I am unable to work. I'm concerned at how quickly my appointment came through, is this due to them suspecting something bad?
