Hi 

I know exactly how you feel

i saw the dr on Wednesday and have also been referred for the urgent 2ww appointment.

they do say to try not to worry but you can't help being anxious and find ourselves looking on these websites 

hope it all goes well for you x

Hi, 

Yes agreed, we try our hardest not to worry but somehow we start worrying even when we have no idea what it is! Dr Google is a nightmare! 

I feel a little better today though, hopefully Tuesday goes all well.

I hope your appointment goes all well too ️xx

Hello both 

I'm.waiting for my breast clinic appointment too (they called yesterday after I saw doctor on Wednesday. Appointment is 5th Feb).

I first noticed a large lump 3 days before Christmas. I thought possibly hormonal changes so waited until after my period to see your doctor. 

Saw doctor 2 days ago, she was lovely asked family history etc (my grandmother had breast cancer in her 70s). She examined me and said right breast felt normal, she asked where I felt the lump in my left breast I pointed it out straight away as very easy to find (think it's slightly bigger from when I first found it).

She said it was large and measured it so she could put that in my referral. She estimated it was 6cm, she said it did feel smooth but not if it moves.

She said she would refer me urgently to clinic to get it checked. Said not to worry as could be a cyst but if I didn't hear off clinic within 2 weeks to call the surgery again.

So now I'm just waiting. I've told my hubby it's probably a cyst and not to worry. I am getting anxious though as we have 3 young children (12, 4 and 3). 

Hope your appointments go well. Sorry for long message I haven't told anyone other than my husband so feels good to have somewhere to talk.

Good luck xxx

Hello , 

Hope you're doing well with the wait. It's definitely the worst part waiting for appointments etc. We just want to know what it is, human nature I suppose.

Yes, I agree. Its nice to have somewhere to talk about it. I didn't want to tell my mother as she has recovered from cancer last year. But she needed to know. 

But it's nice to talk on here, with people going through the same thing. 

I hope you're appointment goes well in the 5th Feb, let us know how you get on ️xx

Thank you  

Good luck for yours hope it all goes well. Keep us updated, take care xx

Sorry I should have said glad you're mum has recovered that's going news.

Take care and good luck for your appointment xx
