Hi there,
I have a lump in my right breast and my GP has referred me to the breast clinic. My appointment is on Thursday and I am worried.
I had a scare 3 years ago when my right nipple inverted but was told it was OK after the biopsy. I had told my friends and family and felt really guilty that I had worried everyone for nothing so this time I have only told my husband.
I really feel I want to tell other people but dont want to worry them for nothing again.
I know I sound like a drama queen but I need to talk to someone. My husband doesnt say anything unless I mention it. I think he is scared of upsetting me or just thinks it will be nothing again.
I would be grateful for any advice.

Hi,
Such a difficult time for you both, as everyone says the waiting is the worst time ever, your brain goes into overdrive and no matter how hard you try to forget about it, it keeps popping into your head! Keep posting with any questions you have and try to keep busy (easier said than done), big hugs and fingers crossed for you, take care xx
Hi
I had my appointment at the breast clinic today and felt it was a waste of time.
The consultant asked me some questions then examined my breasts and said he would send me for a mamogram and ultrasound, but I will have to wait for an appointment to come through the post. I cant believe that I have waited 2 weeks for this appointment only to have the same examination that my GP did.
I am going on holiday next Wednesday and was hoping to know whether I have BC or not but i guess I will have to wait.
I still havent told anyone except my husband but i’m finding it hard to concentrate at work.
Thanks for listening
Karen

Hi,
lI have an appointment on 5th October for mammagram and ultrasound because I have a lump in my breast.
I have a pain in my collarbone area which has been there for 4 days now and I am worried that it could be something to do with my lymph glands. I know this sounds like paranoia but I cant help it.
Can anyone give me any advice please
thankyou
