Hi izzie 

i have my appointment on the 16th so it will be exactly 2 weeks from seeing the doctor are you under a 2ww? 

Ive been stressing so much constantly checking my breasts and I’ve been getting spots and bumps all over 

oh no you need your gin at a time like this hope you get it soon and your appointment!

jess 

I truly don't know what to say to you lady's as I had been in a similar situation myself I found a lump my mistake no checking my arm just slipped and their it was I went to the drs thinking he just say it breast tissue due to my age and just knowing I done the right thing which you both have as it a massive step ! 
 

He said my age was good family history and the fact that the lump moves around however he have to rerf me to the breast clinic to be on the safe side 

I had no other symptoms at all so went along and they did a mannogram and ultra sound ( like if you was having a baby ) abs a bisposy all there and then a nurse is with you and then you get to speak to your dr again and they tell you what they think however if they do a bisposy they can't tell you the results for about a week and half after 

I hope this helps with your journey so far any questions please feel free to just ask Rachel x

Jess,

yes meant to be 2 week, referred on 1st July.

great you've got a date, it'll just make you feel like something positive is happening.

i understand scary, but got to be done,

yes I've been poking and prodding too, just red and angry now, Dioc will just probably think I've got (very) adult acne!

Hi Rachel :)

thank you for your positive post I would rather give birth ten times then have the worry that I have now but I guess a lot of women have the same worries I’m not alone and I’ve felt better being on this site it helps me to know people do have a positive outcome yeah I thought the doctor was just gonna tell me it was breast tissue but sadly not so it really scared me and was upset about being referred to the hospital 

jess x

Do you have a date yet hun? 

Yeah it’s got to be done I still keep feeling everyday i don’t know why it’s not gonna make a difference I guess just hoping it disappears! Going through this worry has really made me question what I really want in life and not to worry about stupid things because your health is so important

Hi Jess, 

I completly understand where your coming from as I been there I was sure it was breast tissue with me as I felt fine physically

they have to rerf you now it standard practice as I was told the gp don't have you back anymore to check on these things 

you taken the biggest step going to your gps I hope you get peace of mind soon ! You know you done the right thing as let say it is c then if you caught it early chances are you have to go through a lot less rather than ingoring it 

try to keep yourself busy untill you do if you tell friends or family that up to you however don't feel you can't say one say I rather have a day where it not spoken about as they should respect that ! 
 

keep your chin up I'm here if you like to speak more ! 
 

ang emotion you get is normal x
