Hi I’ve been following some threads on this forum for the past couple of weeks and admire the compassion and strength all you ladies have. im a 38 year old mum of two young children, a couple of months ago found what I thought was a lump in my right breast but left it till after my next period as I thought it was hormonal. When it didn’t go away I made an appointment at my GP. Who advised that there was a lump but she appeared happier that it was mobile but could feel a Tail and advised she would like it looked at so referred me to the breast clinic. That was around 3 weeks ago, I had the appointment on the Monday and received a letter n the Wednesday with an appointment to see the general surgeon at my local hospital two weeks after. Very good service so far which I’m thankful for. Have managed the wait not too badly so far with only a couple of wobbles and I have also stayed away from google relying on the forums when I need to read anything or gain some percpective - so thank you for providing this. Today the day before my appointment, I’m afraid I woke up and could feel anxiety swirling in my stomach, odd I didn’t even think I was thinking too much about things. i guess the what ifs are starting to creep in and I hate that I can’t prepare myself for what may come next. I’m aware that the chances of it being anything are low and that it being a cyst etc is more probable but that doesn’t seem to make things easier right now. Tomorow could be be a game changer I guess? Although then again it could be nothing. Im trying to keep myself busy today . This is an awful place to be. I guess I’ve been trying to make out everything fine when I don’t actually think that at all... tracky
