Am I going Nuts?

Hi. Waiting to see breast clinic in Swindon Thursday after finding a dent in my left breast. I'm trying to think positive but occasionally it comes up in my conversation with my hubby. He only wants to say positive things  as I do but am I feeling that perhaps he ought to be thinking the worse? Sorry it's clear in my head how I'm thinking and feeling ....i think. Am I the only one who hopes that the next time you check the problem has gone away. So you keep checking??

It's a breezy sunny Friday so I will try to relax. X 

  • Hi Bumble3,

    No you're not going nuts.

    I'm with our wonderful Swindon bunch. And they're pretty good. You're in great hands.

    You are doing good to catch anything early. Well done.

    Cos it's perfectly treatable and curable if you catch it early I think isn't it  I'm not medical, but I think that's how it is. And it may well be nothing.

    The Swindon team have been amazing for me.

    Keep on asking questions.

    And "Are you sure?" Is the best question to ask.

    It sounds to me like you're doing everything you can.

    Let it go now and enjoy life. 

    Take it easy. Trust your medical team. They're pretty Good here. 

    Xxxxx

  • Thank you. Sounds like I'll be in good hands 

  • That's the thing is I don't know whaþ to ask?? I try to find out what to expect at the appointment but there's so much info out there. 

    I'm hoping they'll take 1 look and say they can't see a dent like the Dr did and say I'm ok.

  • Hi again Bumble3,

    Perhaps other people on here might come up with some useful questions for you. You need reassurance don't you? Asking "are you sure?" usually does the trick for me because it gives that reassurance, and I ask them to explain exactly what they mean.

    The weather is so warm and sunny, it might be useful to distract yourself with some good times until your appointment. It sounds like you're doing all you can and the wait for that reassurance can be difficult if you think about it too much.

    I wasted too much time distressing myself with imaginings and none of those horrible things I imagined came true.

    So take it easy, be kind to yourself, and enjoy this beautiful weather if you can.

    Huge hugs from here,

    Mary
