Breast lump- petrified

Hi everyone,

 

I found a lump in my right breast last night. I've prodded it so much that I'm not sure if it moves/fixed, soft/ hard, regaular/soft anymore. I think it's quite fixed and irregular, but it's in the lower right of the boob so I can't be sure. I check my breasts quite regularly so I think this is a pretty new lump, but it's quite big and I don't know how I missed it!

I have booked a doctors appointment on Tuesday but it's over the phone. I'm going to call tomorrow to try and get a face to face appointment instead.

I'm just so petrified. I'm 36, have 3 children (6, 3, 1), due to move house in to my dream home before Christmas. Every time I look at them I'm so close to tears. I just feel sick. 

I just need to get all this down. Everyone around me is saying it will be OK, but my mind won't stop going to the worst case scenario.

 

Anyway, not how I expected to spend my Sunday. Hello to everyone out there and tha k you for reading x
