Hi, 

I've just come across your post, I know exactly how you feel I found a lump a month ago in my left breast, its hot and painful, it moves ect. The first 2 weeks I constantly cried, couldn't look/touch my boobs, took ages to get up the courage to go in the bath/shower, cried while washing/drying. I cried constantly. Still cry off and on now. Still can't look at them/touch them with out getting teary.

My doctor filled out an urgent 2 week referral and i'm still waiting well over a month later. I hope you manage to get an appointment soon. I have also been chasing up my appointments my self, the booking centre told me that they don't contact people with in 2 weeks and then my doctors receptionist told me that because I am under 40 I have to wait as long as it take. 

I really hope that your appointment comes soon for you, because for me as someone who has just turned 30 this is absolutely awful to be going through. The emotions, worrying, crying constantly. This is the only place that I have found for support during this time.

I have my fingers crossed that you get an appointment soon x

I'm so glad you are feeling great now Lara. Good luck with your chemo in the next few weeks. I'm hoping my husbands policy extends to family but I'm fairly sure it doesn't. I'll push to be seen as sson as possible though.. 

Thank you for your comments and I'll update you. Xx

I'm so sorry you are still having to wait. Keep pushing to get seen! I have everything crossed that you will get an appointment and everything will be OK for you. Sending a hug your way xx

Hi Toni 

yes a lot of these policies include family , good luck with everything xx 

Hi everyone. I managed to get an appointment face to face this morning. The doctor did a check and confirmed the lump. I've now been referred to the breast clinic. I was able to book in online for 21.09.22 at 9.30 am. Does anyone know what to expect? 

Thank you for your ongoing support. Xx

Hi Toni 

This was my experience not sure if all are the same 

my first appointment was a mammogram, then a chat with consultant , if they see anything on mzmogram they do a ultrasound and biopsy there and then , then attend the biopsy results 7 days later xx hope this helps xx 

Thanks Laura. My mind is in overdrive. I just want the next week to pass as quickly as possible so I can get some answers. Xx
