Hi

i am I driving myself crazy with worry, I had a phone appointment with the doctors on Friday as I have pain in my Collarbone for over 6 weeks, she said she want to see me, so I went to see her the same day, she checked my Collarbone and also carried out a breast Exam, to my shock she said she can feel a lump and has sent me for an urgent referral ! She has said if I don't hear by Tuesday I need to call her so she can chase it up ! 
i have just been diagnosed with mild lupus so to also now be told I have lump and sent me into an emotional spiral ! Also make it's worse I am the same age mY mum was when she found out she had bone cancer 

if anyone could give some advise on what to expect at my appointment that would be greats 

thanks x

    I am in bed reading your post. I am in a similar circumstance. The glands below my right arm are enlarged. I feel as if I am rubbing against 'blubber' at the right hand side of my right breast. I had an appointment on Friday 26 March. She carried out an breast & underarm examination. She didn't find anything but did say my right breast was very full and she could see swelling below my arm. She said she was 'red flagging' me to the breast clinic for two reasons firstly my age (62) & secondly because my mother had a mastectomy 20 years ago. She had it at 63. I am totally past myself. I have done the goggle research which I don't normally do & I am so worried.
