Hi - I found like a small lump in my left breast - my mum is currently being treated for Grade 2 Breast Cancer, last year my dad was treated for cancer - so I am not only paranoid but I am on constant high alert. 

I am not sure if the lump is still there, I had my period last week and now simply don't trust myself. I have called the Breast Clinic today and they've said due to the high amount of referrals my slot is 6 weeks away - he also told me that there was 108 people before me. 

I haven't slept well since last Thursday and now cannot face the prospect of this whole thing hanging over me during xmas and new year. It's like a noose round my neck that tightens and loosens throughout the day - I know everyone worries but I am already beyond my wits god knows how I'll be when January finally comes round. I just want someone to say oh no it's nothing you were being paranoid there is no lump but the doctor also felt it so I am so worried.
