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.

    Xx

    Thank you for your kind words Lara. Hopefully we will come out with a clean bill of health, but there’s still that awful worry lingering that it could be cancer. Trying to keep busy and just waiting for my appt to come through, hoping it won’t be too much longer so I at least know when I am there. Xx
