Breast lump & referral to breast clinic - worried ☹︎

Hi all, 

Just writing on here as I know some of you will be feeling the same as me at the moment! Found a lump whilst showering on Xmas day, went to the Doctors today who felt it and said it wasn’t mobile (which I don’t think is a good sign) and has referred me to Breast Clinic! 
Petrified, I have a 9 year old daughter and keep thinking what if it’s breast cancer, what if I die, I’m terrified for her ️ ️ . I know I need to keep busy and positive as I don’t know anything yet, but it’s such a worrying time! My Mum literally got diagnosed with breast cancer around 4 months ago too. Don’t really know why I am posting on here just know that people will understand x

  • So sorry to hear this. 

    I too am absolutely petrified as I noticed some nipple discharge on Xnas eve and have been referred to the breast clinic by my GP yesterday. (Just received a letter this morning for an apt on the 10th), I"m not sure how I will cope due to constantly worrying about what it might be as I have three boys that are my world.

    I am trying to stay positive and not use Dr Google, but it's so hard, I totally appreciate where you are coming from.
