last year in july i nearly died my kidnys got s infected i just pulled through and no more my husband is the best he doesnt really show his feelings but now and again i see sorrow and fear in his eyes when my kidney thing is mentioned at the begining of the month  found a lump in my left breast i never realy check and i dont know why i checked that morning i just  DID just instict i guess.
i went into the bedroom and told my husband he justgot this look on his face not disbelief not sorrow just his eyes saying "not again"  it was more than fear... i asked him to tell me it  was nothing that i would be ok that it was just a cyst.
he just looked at his hands lookd at our son and it felt like a century till his eyes came to me and he just said he couldnt tell me that he told me to get checked i went to the doctors and she said the lump is to deep to tell so i need to go to the clinic.... she said the lump felt harder than a cyst but she couldnt comment yet.
  
   well tomorow is breast clinic day- stobhill 9:35 am.. i have no idea how to get there i dont know what to expect when i do get there.
it sounds stupid but if it is cancer i justdont have time for it its  not losing my hair ect it just i have a son i'm a model i cant b ill.

    Hi Ema

    I too found a lump backin March and it was what i had feared! For a couple of weeks following diagnosis was numb too and foundit hard to deal with. I am now 8 weeks down the road and after many scans x rays MRi Mamo gram i am finally going in for my op tomorrow.

    Easy to say, but just wait and see what the tests reveal its all too easy to speculate, but if its not the news you hope for, I have every faith in the medical team and i know they will make me better it may be a long road and losing my hair is a small price to pay.

    Stay strong and positive because its the only way to fight this thing.

    Heaps of luck and good wishes for tomorrow

    Hi Em...i found a gristly lump in my left breast back in March...this turned out to be scar tissue from radiation treatment I had previously had when i was 24...I was referred to a consultant (same one from 20 years ago..spooky!)...and he said my mammogram had shown a 'little spider like thing' nestled comfortably away behind my nipple...i then had a mammogram,which,after a core biopsy,confirmed that the 'little spider' was actually a grade 1 tumour...( thankgod i went to my Dr when I felt that gristle!!)...I then had a brain scan,C.T. scan,blood tests,and was admitted to hospital on 19th April...just 4 weeks after my diagnosis....i am now 8 weeks post-op,the emotions come in waves...one day happy,one day angry,one day i'll cry all day,the next I cant stop laughing...I have got the best B.C.N. there is...and the best medical team I could ever ask for,along with fantastic support from family,friends and this website....i know each of our journeys is different,but please dont ever feel like you are alone...i am more than willing to chat with you,if you need any support or advice....or even if you just want to rant off....

    Best Wishes On Your Journey
