Feel sick - Breast Clinic tomorrow

Hi All 

I found a lump last week , gp made me an appointment for tomorrow so super quick

 I have been ok until yesterday but now I am so anxious,  worried and teary this lump is something more. 

I have been to the breast clinic 2/3 times last time in 2020. All OK but for some reason this lump feels different. I am petrified keep feeling sick too. 

I have a 10 year and 8 year old and am not ready to say goodbye to them. I can't really talk to my husband because I feel he might think I am being over the top . 

Sending love x

  • My results are in apparently, but they won't give them over the phone. I've been asked to attend a meeting tomorrow to discuss them. 

    My levels of fatigue have been something else and I've started having extreme night sweats where I wake in the morning and my clothes are drenched. I could literally wring them out. Also my breasts do look very different. My mum had ovarian cancer so I always figured I would get that as I have a lot of pain ony left side lower back. Never found out where pain is coming from but I do have endometriosis and have had surgery a few times so it could be adhesions. 

    Thanks for some reassurance. Bc does run in the family so I'd be nieve to think it's gonna miss me. I'm 49 in a few months.

    Tomorrow morning seems such a long way off. My immune system is rubbish since getting covid. You've done incredible with everything you've been through. Wow. 10:30am.... Sigh.

  • Hi Beachhut,

    I'm so glad to hear that your results are back and that you will get them tomorrow. I shall be thinking of you in the morning and hope that nothing untoward is found.

    Please let us know how you get on.

    Kind regards,

  • Hey Beachhut, I've been thinking about you today - hope you're okay and that your appointment was positive. Sending well wishes x

  • Hi Meg bless you. I found out this morning it is stage 2b lobular and around 6cm long. I was given a lot of info but they want to do an MRI first to see how far it has spread I think they said. Then I guess it will be some kind of surgery.

    I'd have been nieve to think it wasn't cancer with the rest of my family having had c or still have it. I'm just worried about my little one starting school in Sept. I've been told not to get a job either. 

    Just trying to get my head around things. Since catching covid I feel like my body struggles to fight off a common cold never mind anything else. 

    Thanks for thinking of me and sending me your best wishes. 

    Xx

  • Need a masectomy. In shock, scared, angry, sad. Hiding it from the kids. ;-/

  • Hi beachut. 

    I've been told i need to go to guys for an 8.5cm aidep that looks dodgy.

    The medical staff said they were unanimous in their meeting i should have a masectomy. So i'm going through a similar road to you. 

    I hope you are ok.

    I go through feeling normal, to feeling terrified and panicy, to feeling absolute rage. 

    I am not telling my kids until after the masectomy. Which will be in 7/8 weeks.

    Hugs Su

  • Hi Subedo 

    I'm sorry to hear your news about needing a mastectomy. It must have been a dreadful shock. I hope that you gain some support from the lovely ladies on this forum. Sending you lots of love and positivity.
