Hi!! Literally just joined to reply to you as im currently going through very similar and am really struggling to deal with it! Like you i have a history of breast lumps, and in the past have been reffered to the breast clinic for tests to be told i have fibroadenomas. I am 27 by the way and also have two boys, just turned one and my eldest is five in feb! I noticed a burning/achey feeling in right armpit in around September 2018, and ignored it for a while as just thought it was an ingrown hair etc etc, but the pain never went away and here we are in january and noticed a couple of breast lumps, went to docs and have been reffered to breast clinic for appt on monday the 21st. I am so so worried about having breast cancer, i feel physically sick thinking about it and when i look at my sweet little boys all i want to do is cry as I don’t want to get ill and ever ever leave them!! So just wanted to say you’re not alone and i truly hope we are both ok, best of luck at your appointment sweet heart, im struggling to cope with the worry of it all so can really relate to you x 

Wow r lifes sound very similar my little boy turns one on thursday and my eldest 5 in april ive broke down so many times looking at my youngest carnt for my 4 year old he will worry , best of luck with your appointment lets pray were both ok . So hard not to think thr worst n diagnose your self with all sorts isnt it . X

Jolamine xx

Good luck tommow prayimg everything goes ok for yiu , how u holding up x

Good luck tomorrow my fingers are crossed for you. 

Welcome Jo hope everything goes well on Friday for you as well. Please tell us a little bit more about you x 

Thanks for the well wishes, I'm 33 I don't have any children.  Only recently found a lump I've never had any changes before in my breasts went along to the doctor's expecting to be re-assured it's nothing to be confronted with a breast clinic referral.  No re-assurances or anything that could calm my nerves even slightly.  I'm hoping this is standard for GP's but it doesn't really matter I guess, as the experts will tell me more. 

To be honest it didn't become real until I had my letter with my apt things have moved quickly, but I'd rather that than more waiting.    Black and white always seems to make things more real.

I feel as though I'm in limbo technically I have nothing to tell but yet I have all this worry - looking forward to Friday, when I may know more, and lets not forget be worry free. 

It has helped to know alot of people are in the same situation, I'm hoping for good news for everyone.  

Yes it is a very worrying time the not knowing and nothing anyone can say will totally stop that. Try and keep busy it doesn’t make you forget but for a while you do think of other things. Most areas have a two week referral practise. Plus most will do a see the doctor then mammogram then if need be an ultrasound scan then maybe biopsies. This maybe be done all on the same day. Then normally about a week wait for results. Have you got someone to go with you? It’s worth writing any questions down as your mind goes blank the minute you walk in and you can’t always take everything in what they are saying x

Yes, I have someone coming along.  I was going to go myself but figured the moral support could be a good thing.   Definitely focusing on being busy to avoid the thought process.  

Thanks for the advice, I will definitely ensure I have a list of any questions I come up against!
