Breast Lump Investigations

Hi ks95 

I’m sorry you find yourself here. I too have just joined and feeling very sad to find myself here. I have different symptoms of a blood from the nipple. Happening just once this week and awaiting the breast clinic for tests. I too am in a whirlwind of anxiety and fearing the worst. I’ve googled and searched the internet high and low for reassurance. There’s many positive outcomes on this site and we must remember those who go on after their appointments with a good result and nothing to worry about more than likely don’t return to this site to inform. The only way we’ll have answers is once we’ve been checked over. I feel your worries, I find googling intensifies the anxiety. Here if you’d like to chat and equally if anyone else here has had similar symptoms I’d like to know how you are getting on xx

Hi

1. I'm here with the exact same scenario. I too have a young daughter and I've been trying to keep it together all day but I have a horrible creeping fear of the worst case scenario. The worst thing is, I went to my gp a year ago with this same lump and was told it was nothing to worry about so I was very relieved, but it's got bigger and so I went back and a different Dr referred me this time. Now I'm left thinking how I could be so daft not to question my gp a year ago. What if I've left it a whole year without action. I'm absolutely beside myself at the thought. I called mcmillan this morning as I woke up in a huge panic and they helped calm me down.  They are really wonderful.  I didn't feel I could lay that on my husband and he was with our daughter although he is aware. Maybe an option if you get to feeling like that

Just be happy for your little girl over Christmas. Being sad won't change the outcome anyway. Let's hope its a cyst!

Hi KS95 , Peachy1 and Filo and a very warm welcome to the online community which I hope you'll find is both an informative and supportive place to be.

Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience which certainly gives hope if the outcome is not the best for any of us. Really happy to hear you're in such a good place now xxx

 Peachy1 Filo Ma78 latchbrook thank you so much for all taking the time to respond. I think I may call the support line tomorrow just to talk through how I’m feeling as I personally don’t know anyone who has been through this process. Your messages are all incredibly lovely and have helped me to feel more positive. I just have to wait and see what happens and be grateful that I found the lump and am getting it checked. I am wishing you all the positivity in the world xxxx

It’s hard waiting, do you have any health cover like Simply Health etc they give diagnosis without the wait. You need a mammogram. Hope all ok. Take care
