I didnt book it as ive had my appoitment come through but not till the 26th November its still a long wait 20 days it would of taken from the referal. The private scan was a lot of money which i was going to do for the consultant and the ultrasound but then if a biopsy is needed it was £750 just for 1 single biopsy :( 

Hi N92,

It certainly mounts up very quickly, when the different tests are included. You also have the problem of having another wait to get back into the NHS system, if you need any further treatment. Now that you have your NHS appointment, you could phone again and say that you are willing to take a cancellation, if any come up. In the meantime, you can start a countdown to your appointment at last.

Kind regards,

Hi N92,

I very much doubt that A & E would be willing to do anything for you, especially if they knew that you already had an appointment.

Kind regards,

Good luck with your scan ,let us know how you get on xx

I did think that to :( i have my appoitment now at the breast clinic on monday i rang and they was able to give me a cancelation app thank god. Few more days till i no if my worse fear is about to happen. I still havnt managed to eat either for over a week now. 

Hi N92, I messaged you earlier in the week as I saw we had similar symptoms. I just wanted you to know I had my appointment this morning and all is fine. Like you, I have worried myself sick for 10 days since my referral and I can’t tell you the relief. Please try not to worry, I was convinced something was wrong but there isn’t. I know not every case is the same but I really hope I can reassure you slightly x

Was this at the Gp? Or at the breast clinic? x 

Glad it was all okay though! You can stop worrying now :) xx

did they mention what it could be at all? x 

Did your nipple/areola go a bit weird though? Mine has really changed gone puffy, and i can feel a tugging feeling in it every time i move which is radiating to my armpit. Did they take any biopsy’s for u? X

So this was at the breast clinic. I had examination she said there was a thickening in the area the GP mentioned so because of that I had an ultrasound, but she said she wasn’t worried and thinks it’s hormonal and breast pain can be a number of reasons not usually linked to cancer. Ultrasound was straight after and I was told it was clear xx

It hasn’t no. But I do feel a pulling when laying at night, burning sensation that goes upto armpit. They didn’t do a biopsy. But even if they do when you go that doesn’t mean anything is definitely wrong. She said the lump that was felt by my gp is a thicker tissue than the other breast and the tenderness is likely hormonal x

My Nipple has gone quite flat and almost got smaller in size. My actual breast though seems to of grown. I don’t feel any tugging though. I do have the burning sensation that starts sort of underneath the breast and moves up into arm pit. I don’t think there is any lumps, it definitely feels different to the other side but no actual lumps that I can feel x
