The title says it all I guess. 

I had a scare a couple of years ago, went to a “one stop” breast clinic and after a scan, mammogram and biopsy everything came back ok thankfully. 

This time round I seemed to develop a small spot on the side of my breast. Within a week it was infected and turned into an ulcer. I’ve been ok different antibiotics since 2nd January and now trying fusidic acid cream. 

I have my appointment at the breast clinic again but due to the scandal in the north east there are delays so I’ve spent the last month overthinking and still have 2 weeks to go till my appointment. 

I’m not sure why I’m posting here. Some support maybe? My husband has his head in the sand and won’t talk about it. But it’s all I’m thinking about. 

The ulcer is now the size of a 20p piece. It is finally starting to dry out but has a very had lump/patch of tissue under my skin now. It doesn’t really hurt as I have gone on to loose some skin sensation however the inside of my breast has stabbing and burning sensations throughout the day. Also, my nipples feel damp - and very painful/sensitive - but there doesn’t seem to be any leakage. 

Sorry for the post. I’m not even sure why I’m writing it.
