Hi, I am new to the group and even though I haven’t had a definite diagnosis yet, I am struggling with the “waiting game”. I had had a pea size lump under my right arm for nine months and have had no problems with it until recently. I went to my GP in May who told me not to worry. I was given antibiotics and sent on my way.
I went back again last week as it started giant me grief and done pain. I gad noticed it was a little larger too. GP has referred me urgent to the Breast clinic so it’s all a bit waiting game now. I’m a single mother to a four year old and I’m struggling.
Im having panic attack’s, noticing every little twinge of pain in my body and crying every few hours.
I lost my mum to lung cancer three years ago so the thought of going through anything like she did is scaring me to death 
Hi and welcome to the community at what is a worrying time for you. We know how anxious the uncertainty and not knowing can be. I see you have joined the friendly and supportive Breast Group . If you start a new discussion in the group, you will find the members have a lot of experience and will be able to offer advice. We know how hard the waiting can be, but there will always be someone here if you just want to talk. I hope all goes well. Best wishes.
