  • Welcome to the forum R-ach although I'm sorry to hear about the lump that's been found under the cyst in your boob.

    I know this must be scary but try not to panic. Easier said then done, I know, but I hope these tips we have on how to cope with the wait will help to steady your nerves.

    I hope this article I've found on what will happen at your breast screening will help you feel more prepared for your appointment as well.

    Hopefully some of our members who have been in this situation will share their stories and advice with you soon but in the meantime, we're sending you all our support R-ach and we will have our fingers crossed the lump and cyst are no cause for concern.

    Kind regards,
