Hi,
I’ve been looking at all your posts for the last 2 weeks trying to pluck up the courage to register. Need someone to talk to really and don’t have much close family, just my husband and daughters. I can’t sleep, is that normal? I was playing with my grandson 3 weeks ago when he caught my boob with his foot, it really hurt!! 3 days later in the shower, I felt a lump in the same place, thought it was a little swelling. Went to the doctor who referred me to the breast clinic the next week. I was told on the day I had breast cancer. I have had an appointment today with the BCN at the hospital who confirmed the diagnosis from the clinic, you know, I can’t believe what is going on, it’s surreal really, I am quite breast aware and didn’t feel the lump and I only had a mammogram last year. If he hadn’t caught my boob with his foot I wouldn’t know the lump was there yet!!! I have to go back next week to see the consultant. Have to have something called lumpectomy. I think the nurse said a name with initials but I can’t remember. Please can someone tell me how long I will have to wait for the operation and what happens then. Trying to take this a day at a time but in the night your mind works overtime. Can’t stop crying.
