Panic

In Feb this year I was diagnosed with rectal cancer. The prognosis was curable and I've had radiotherapy and have rescans next Tuesday. Now also on Tuesday I have a visit to the breast clinic. Yesterday I went to the doctors as my left breast feels lumpy and swollen..she referred me to the breast clinic as she found a 2cm firm lump..doesn't feel mobile to me but her words were she couldn't say what that lump was.  I'm in a bit of a meltdown..can only think its breast cancer.. upset at yet more scans.. guess I'm on here just letting off a bit of steam..

  • Welcome to the forum Gingercat although I'm sorry to read what's going on. It must be very difficult.

    Hopefully some of our members will be along soon to offer their support and advice but I just wanted to let you know we're here for you and will have our fingers crossed the lump isn't cancerous.

    Wishing you all the best with your referral and rectal cancer rescans next week.

    Kind regards,
