Hi there 

I understand your anxiety as I've been in the same boat this week , my appointment is tomorrow morning. When I got the call back letter it stressed me but then I decided to  put it to the back of my mind as much as possible. Keeping busy is the best thing . Worrying won't change the outcome anyway it's a wasted emotion. Try to plan something nice for yourself while you're waiting, we always think the worst in these situations but we must live in hope that all will be ok & if it's not at least we'll be in the system & getting looked after .

Hi, 

I totally understand your anxiety, I'm waiting for apt at Brest clinic which is the 25th, I have a lump in my left breast, I am now feeling all sorts of symptoms, pain in both breasts, aching body, constantly fatigued, I'm climbing the walls with anxiety. 
 

people tell you not to worry but I can't shut if off I feel like I'm living in a nightmare, I'm only 35 with 2 girls, my husband has been good but he's a positive Pete and doesn't understand how I'm feeling. 
 

I hope you get the best results when you go to your appointment xxx

Hi 
 

thank you for your response. I've tried to keep busy but the anxiety seems to take over making me feel a whole host of symptoms that I then question. 
 

I'm more worried now about the face I have a sensation in armpit as well as the breast

good luck for tomorrow. xx

Hi TayKa 

thank you so much for responding. Yes it's such a horrible feeling and you start to question the anxiety symptoms for something more serious. I just can't relax and I'm so tense. 
 

I completely get how it your feeling it's absolutely terrifying, I'm only 32 too and have a little girl. I think everyone else wants to be positive but it's hard when your feeling what you have etc. 
 

wishing you good luck for your check up! Xxx

When the anxiety takes over we imagine all sorts I've been examining my breasts looking for answers. I'll let you know how it goes tomorrow & thanks for the good wishes . The waiting is awful so I know how u feel . X

Hi Dublady,

I hope that all goes well for you tomorrow. Are you bringing someone with you to your appointment? it is always a good idea to do this.

Please let us know how you get on. We are always here for you.

Kind regards,

Hi RLFur and TayKa,

I know that it's probably pointless to tell you not to worry. I just wanted to say that the way that you are both feeling is perfectly normal.

All the symptoms that you're accumulating are also par for the course at this stage and, most are possibly due to your anxiety or to constantly examining your breasts.

I hope that all goes well for you both at the breast clinic. This is always a worrying time and the best way to distract yourself from the wait is to keep yourself busy meanwhile. Also, try to avoid looking on the internet until you know what the matter is and, even then, stick to the more respected sites like this one.

Please let us know the outcome of your visit. We are always here for you.

Kind regards,

Jolamine xx

Thanks Jolamine for the good wishes for tomorrow & yes my friend is coming with me x

Hi Dublady,

I'm glad to hear that your friend is going with you tomorrow. It is particularly important to have someone with you whenever you are going to get the results of tests. This may be your next visit in this case. It can also be helpful to write down any questions you have for your consultant.

Keeping my fingers crossed for you.

Kind regards,

Jolamine xx

Hi Jolamine

Calcification was found in my left breast so had to have biopsy, etc. Results next Tuesday so still in limbo x
