I have never wrote on anything like this before but many of times I've searched through sites like these looking for answers and never or not very often have I found something positive in the things I've been looking for. I don't even know if a post like this is meant for this forum but I know this is one of many places I've been searching the last 2 days.
 

I wanted to to write this post to give some people hope and reassurance who are waiting for test results or to be seen for appointments like I have been desperately looking and searching for the last 48 hours and found very little to make me feel a little more hopeful. 

2 days ago I found two lumps where I would describe to be more near my armpit but not actually in it. They were more between my breast and armpit. (I'm going to try and describe it in as much detail as possible to hopefully put someone's mind at ease) one lump was quite large, wasn't Round was more like an oval dome (best way I can describe it is the size of a large grape cut in half) it was quite hard with a smooth feeling and I could move it between my fingers, the second lump was very close to it felt like an egg shaped pea and hard also moveable. Neither of these were painful or tender.
I went to my GP yesterday who wasn't very nice to say the least made me think of the worst without any form reassurance or encouragement. I was told that the lumps were 'defiantly suspicious and needs seeing to urgently' he then asked 'does breast cancer run in the family' and reffered me to the breast clinic and that was about it I know they have to ask these questions but a little bit of 'don't worry It could be anything' or 'it might be this but also we will have to have it checked for cancer'. He then see me on my way and that was that. Since that I was a wreck, a single mum with 3 kids who was barley holding it together before I even got in to the appointment but been trying hopelessly not to let the kids see. I was truley lucky to have such supporting family who booked me in to a private hospital today (2 days after finding my lumps) I barely slept a wink the last 2 nights desperately searching this site and many others for answers very few were of hope. I felt like my life had been taken away from me. Today was the most nerve racking, scariest day of my life and my heart truly goes out to people that have had to carry on their life and wait those weeks for those tests and results. 
 

I went to my first consultation where the consultant talked over the possible things it could be, checked my breasts and felt the lumps and talked through the different scans and explained that the lumps aren't linked to my breast (where my GP thought they were) but instead to my lymph nodes. I didn't need a mammogram I just needed an ultrasound. 
 

at the ultrasound she explained that if she thought the lumps need further testing then I would then need a biopsy. The scan lastest about 10 minutes (she had to go over my breasts aswell as my armpits as I have breast implants and I wanted her to make sure that these were not linked to the lumps) after the scan she explained that my lumps were infact just 'inflammation of the lymph nodes' and this could be caused by any minor infection, no further tests or treatments are required, they are happy to leave them to go down on their own.

i have never cried such tears of happiness like I have today and I've never been so thankful for the news I've received today. For 2 days my life felt like it had been taken away and I desperately searched for Abit of hope but everything I read just lead to breast cancer or lymphoma. i know that many people aren't as lucky as me and I don't want this post to offend any one who don't or didn't get the answers they were hoping for but I just want to try and reassure at least one person that even when lumps are found they aren't always cancer and can defiantly just be something very minor.

tiday I felt like my life was given back to me I hugged my kids so tight I never wanted to let them go and I'm forever greatful for the life I have. I hope everyone who reads this post gets the same outcome as I got today. 
Thank you for taking your time to read.

I pray you all get the answer you hoped for like I prayed for myself, love and luck to you all
