Dear Tracy,Don’t want to worry you but my breast was incredibly itchy for best part of a year before my diagnosis! It was so itchy it would hurt - if you know what I mean! I did visit my GP who told me not to worry as an itch was not a sign of BC and that it was probably hormonal (I was on HRT for an early menopause) I ditched the HRT as soon as I found the lump and the itch went.
Best regards Josie
Hi Josie Thank you i know what you mean im going through early menopause had womb removed two years ago.cant do HRT as have had blood clot in my lung just over ten years ago. how are you going is everything ok. how are you doing. thank you so very much.

Hi Tracy,I’m doing very well thankyou.Had a poor prognosis when diagnosed with grade3 triple neg tumour with spread to nodes Christmas 03.Cant believe that I’m nearly five years down the line and still NED.The time has flown! I was on HRT for 7yrs - was 45 when dx.Never thought I’d say it but am sooo looking forward to my 50th birthday the end of Oct!!
Love Josie
Hi josie what does NED mean sorry but dont know all the lingo just yet just hope it means that you are clear so happy for you im only 41. my hubby just does`nt want to talk about it. i have found that this site has helped me so much the last few days. i have to wait quite a while to see someone but hoping that means its all ok.
best wishes tracy
Hi tracy just to save you waiting NED means No Evidence of Disease the result we all crave!Vx
Hi thats a word i will love to get when i go to the breast clinic in eight weeks im away for when the first appointment was so had to change it its the best they could do for me. so got to worry all over my holiday having been on this site im now not scared just worried about it.
best wishes tracy
Hi Tracy,If they were concerned about your symptoms you’d have had your appointment within 2wks.Hope everything goes well for you.Enjoy your holiday.
love Josie
have contacted the hospital they have said the havent got appointments for the ladies waiting to been seen so am lucky just to have an appointment at the moment. My right breast is so bad at the moment that it was itching so much at the weekend that i scratched it so much i made it bleed. just thought i would ask does anyone know anything about pagets and do my symptoms sound like it could be that. please help as its causing my oh and me to row about it.
thanks for any help
