Hello, I initially went to see my doctor ref a breast lump ( which did turn out to be cancer) but funnily enough my left nipple had been itching for a good few weeks so I mentioned that too, I had also read about pagets and had convinced myself I had it!  But 3 mammograms and an ultrasound later proved not ( thank goodness)  I googled pictures of pagets and mine didn't look anything like them....no rash( except where I had been scratching) no discharge....nothing.....it was a relief to have The tests.....the biopsy I found completely painless....is it a core biopsy your having? Let us know what happens? Fingers crossed everything is ok...xxxx

Hi Marlyn,

thank you you so much for replying x I’m having a punch biopsy I think , just no idea what’s going on and it’s all such a minefield I can’t keep off internet which is driving me just as mad as the itching ha x how are you getting on now ? Xx

I had my lumpectomy on Thursday and recovering pretty well, I won't know exactly what my treatment plan is for another 2 weeks.....isn't the waiting agonising??? I really do try and stay off evil dr google, it gets me more and more worked up! Yes, the itching can be intense, my chemical gave me a steroid cream which helped enormously, but you mustn't use it for more than a week....the NHS have been fantastic as far as I'm concerned...you couldn't be in better hands xxxx

Ahh Marlyn , 

thank you so much again for your reply , I must admit I didn’t expect any so it’s just so reassuring to know others are there and going through same process x

2 weeks seems an age to wait for your plan. But you are right I must stay off the evil internet or that will drive me mad ! Take it easy, keep busy busy  and please keep us updated with your treatment xxx

take care sending hugs x
