Hi everyone,
I found a huge, solid lump, maybe slightly bigger than a grape, inside my underboob while putting on my bra yesterday morning. It's so obvious that I have no idea how I had missed it before. My husband also swears it's new. I do examine my breasts semi regularly and I definitely did not feel it last month. It really seems to have appeared out of nowhere. I rang my GP straightaway, who referred me to breast clinic. That appointment is in 2 weeks' time.
I am trying my best not to Google, but of course my thoughts go straight to the Scary C word. Sadly I'm not new to this C word, having had Stage Ia melanoma a few years ago.
I don't know why I'm posting. I guess I'm hoping it will help me calm down a little. I haven't told friends or family because I don't want to deal with their worries on top of my own.
If anyone is going through the same thing, let's chat and keep each other sane while waiting for appointments/diagnosis. Thank you.
