Hi there

i feel your anxiety. I am in exactly the same boat. Went to GP yesterday with golf sized lump in breast discovered after losing weight. I have been fast tracked but now waiting. Feel sick with worry. Trying just to keep myself busy. Like you not looking  forward to going to clinic on my own but I understand why with Covid etc.  The not knowing and waiting is the worst. Sending hug and support to you. We can do this x

Hi thanks for replying, yes agree totally understand why coz of Covid just adds to it all. Agree the waiting is the worst, sorry you're going through it too, thinking of you & sending hugs & we will get through it xxx 

The worst thing is not telling anyone apart from husband and trying to put on a happy face as usual. I am a full time carer for my 15 year old daughter who has been housebound for 2 years with ME/CFS. This is my main fear not being able to still care for her. I am not telling her until there is anything to know and I am trying to keep calm but then every know and again I am overcome with that pit feeling. Trying not to let my brain race ahead of things xx

It's like you are reading my mind! I know that feeling exactly- I haven't told my two sons & am not going to unless it's bad news - one really struggles with his mental health & has just got back on track & I really don't want to upset his world to the point I've even thought can I not tell him ever but no that's not realistic. I am also a carer for my husband & that's my worry - how will I do it dealing with bruises at the same time? But I know if it comes to it we will all cope & get through it together somehow & I have to keep positive as this worry could all be for nothing. It is so hard when no-one else knows & now I'm seeing cancer everywhere too - you're not alone hun, I'm with you & there are lots of others who we don't know about feeling the same right now - take care, let's keep busy, keep doing little things we love to cheer ourselves up & the worst part which is waiting will come to an end soon xxxx 

How are you doing? I have my appointment for this Thurs? When is yours?

I've been very up & down this week, it seems to go in waves - every other day is bad then I get a stronger day - had a much better day today. Thanks for asking - mine's Thursday too! Hope yours goes as well as it can, will be thinking of you, sending hugs xxxx
