Hi My name is binki, I’m new to the forum. My brief story. on Thursday 12Th May. i found a small lump in my right breast after a shower. i went to see my GP the next day, after a examination, he said he could feel the lump, and has re-fared me to the breast clinic. my appointment is for the 26Th May. i had no idea what i would be in for at the clinic. i have been reading with interest, all the posts of worried people, and all the wonderful reply s and advice and most of all reassuring Comments the positivity on here amazes me i now feel OK about my apportionment knowing that all you have been through this and far worse. i feel privileged to be apart of this site. so in stead of making my self sick with worry.i will look at Tomorrow is a brand new day, greet it with love and watch it unfold and know that i am not alone (smiling) x
Hi Binki, I am in very much the same position as you, I found a lump a few weeks ago which was confirmed by my doctor, I had my mammogram last monday and i go to the breast clinic this wednesday, very scared and the waiting hes been very hard but will finally (hopefully) find out what it is soon. I think this forum is amazing as well, the people are so inspiring. Good luck with your appointment and hopefully we will both be having good news soon xx
Hi Binki
Welcome to this site. I’m glad you went and saw your GP quickly and that you have been referred to a breast clinic. I’m sure the lump could be one of many things, including something innocent like a cyst, but I just wanted to say that if you do get some bad news, I’m sure your wonderful, positive attitude will help you get through the next few months. I was diagnosed on 28th May last year (the date will forever be etched in my mind) but I have now come out the other end, and have made some totally amazing people along the way.
Will be thinking of you on 26th May - please come back and let us know how you get on.
Sending you cyber-hugs

Hi binki and just06
Welcome to the forums, I hope you find them a great source of information and support.
You may find it helpful to read the BCC booklet ‘referral to a breast clinic’ It gives information about what to expect at the clinic and details of the different tests you may have. To order a copy or read this on line just follow this link:-

I hope you find this helpful.

Hi Binki and Justy,
Just a note to wish you both well at your appointments, fingers and everything else crossed that your results are kind to you. Whatever happens make sure you do stay positive…easy to say I know but it really does help.
I was given the dreaded news that noone wants to hear and I even surprised myself at how suddenly positive I became…it just happened, it has helped me through…especially the early days when you don’t have any answers and have to do a lot of waiting.
Hope your news is better than mine was, stay in touch and let us know how you get on
positive vibes for both of you
Suze xx
Justy Good luck for tomorrow i will be thinking about you and sending good positive thoughts your way 
Let me know as time allows x
Thank you Suze, for your kind words, it must of been difficult to have had bad news. My sister has had cancer three times in the past 18 months. i have been with her on every appointment and surgery. the hospital thought we were attached at the hip (smiling)she has come through it all cancer free YIPPEE!
Thank you Sam for the link. what a wonderful information link, so helpful (smiling) Just the long dreaded wait now. one week gone one to go! lots of love Binki x
Oh well Only two days to go before my appointment can’t come quick enough,unfortunately i have just found another lump in the same breast. while waiting for my hubby to come and see, my fingers was hurting holding the lump i decided to put marker pen on so i would know where it was to show him! His face was such a picture when he saw me with marker pen all over my breast (laughing) my hubby is a shaking wreck(Bless him) i have faced quite a lot of things in my life and i have always found a good sense of humor helps a great deal (laughing) i have been reading out posts on here to him, we have been smiling/laughing/crying .We have been getting so engrossed in other peoples cancers and lives we have forgotten all about me lol But seriously what a wonderful inspiration people on here ,it feels like a family, (Amazing) i will definitely let you know good or bad. and thank you for taking the time to care .Blessings and lots of love and ((((Hugs))) Binki x
