Found a lump

I have found a lump but havnt told my husband yet... has anyone else been in the same position?

  • Hiya,

    Sorry to hear this! Also in same position...I've had discharge from one of my nipples for last few months and found the courage to go to the docs today. She confirmed there is a lump so waiting for my follow up app! I'm 30 so a bit anxious , even if it's not cancerous worrying if it will have to get removed! 

  • So sorry to hear this. Yes. I found. All on Christmas morning and only told my husband after clinic tonight as I was in such a mess. I didn't want to tell him when I had nothing concrete to tell him, then I didn't want him to come to clinic as I didn't want to have to worry about looking after him and being strong for him. I denied myself of his support by doing that though. Yu know him well - you'll have to tell him at some point, if he'll be sympathetic and supportive I would tell him. Good luck with whatever you decide x

  • Good morning sparkle,  I too found a lump but I'm my armpit I chose to ignore it and it got bigger only then did I go to doctors who sent me on for tests that I had yesterday now awaiting results.  I personally do not have much support around me so if you can tell someone husband, family member or friend sure it will help to get the reassurance.  Please take the mind of better safe than sorry and pop to see you GP though they'll be able to either tell you what it is or send you onto the hospital for further investigation so you can get the answers you deserve.

    Wishing you all the best.
