Hello SammieT, Sorry to hear about your breast clinic referral and that you're feeling so worried about it but trying to pretend to other people that you're not. Sounds like that's making you feel even more alone. Sorry also that you've lost your dad so recently as well as you mum nine years ago and are missing them so much. Probably those you've told are just as worried as you are but everyone could be just pretending as well. It is hard waiting those two weeks for your first appointment, there's no two ways about it. Most of us on this forum will have done the two week wait. But, the days will go by and you'll get there. Old saying but, take each day at a time - concentrate on getting through tomorrow (Saturday) then through Sunday, and so on. Try to do something to soothe your worries or take your mind off them - walking, talking, music, sport, meditation, anything you would normally enjoy or can concentrate on. Get support from the people in your life who care about you. Remember that the majority of women referral to breast clinic don't have breast cancer and you could well be one of them. There is also a Nurse phone line you could ring, which I think is open on Saturday mornings, as well as on week days. Their phone number is on this website. Remember you're not alone and if, or when, you need support from this forum, someone will reply. In the meantime, just take care of yourself as best you can. Let us know how you get on. Sandpiper x
