Found a lump

Hi everyone, I found a lump a few weeks ago in my breast and put off going to the doctors for about a week as I was scared. U went and felt nervous as to what they would say, yes he felt lump and when I said I have also had fluid leak from my nipple, he asked for me to have a urgent 2 week referral appointment, which I have this Monday 1/4/19.  Im very nervous about going and have not really thought about anything else, I’ve tried to keep myself busy which is fine until I stop.

Ive only told my partner, and even then that was about 2 weeks after I found the lump and got the referral, as didn’t want him to worry. It’s so hard being alone and not having a real person to talk to, I mean my partner says positive things all the time but it doesn’t help, bless him. I would rather think negative and be told positive news then think positive and be told bad news, it that strange. I guess that’s just how my mind works.

  • I'm in the same boat as you almost exactly - having a biopsy on monday also! I'm not telling anyone except my ex husband (he's a great friend). I couldn't bear the wait so paid for a private mammogram which was useless as apparantly I have dense breasts) and the sonogram said 50/50 of being either good or bad news. I'm not really coping well. I can't bear the thought of telling my mother or kids.

     

    I can't stop googling and my chest is tight nad painful - probably through stress, but it makes me worry more.

    Good luck on monday x

  • That’s good that you two are still good friends. I know what you mean with the your chest feeling tight etc, mine has been like it for the past few days, I think it is stress and worry about app on Monday. It’s the not knowing and the what ifs.

    i hope for the best for you on Monday and hope that you get good news also

  • Thank you! 

    Have tried to keep busy and treat the kids lots whilst out shopping. They're being so adoreable with it being mothers day and I couldn't bare them to know anything was wrong.

     

    I'll be a step closer tomorrow anyway with a biopsy done. My chest is agony and I'm sure also that it's stress.

    Fingers crossed xx
