  • Ha, ha you lot have really made me laugh...

    Needed it tonight as I have been sending myself into a right old panic all afternoon! I have a tiny little lump come up about 2cm below my bra strap on the affected side. It has been there 2 weeks now, well 2 weeks since I noticed it. And I have been doing the very thing that I know is not a good idea - looking at Dr Google :(

    Think I might go to the GP just to get it checked out. Wish I could stop my brain thinking these crazy thoughts!!! Hope everybody else is having a better day.

  • Do get it checked out Gay. Most likely nothing, but still. 

    I'm having an ultrasound on one in my neck (opp side) every couple of months - nothing sinister, but needs keeping an eye on. Too close to the artery to risk a biopsy.

  • Hi Gay, now we don't need to tell you how stupid it is to trust Dr Google, what does google know! We all know that if you want a proper answer to any question you go to.........

    An intellectual looking Rabbit on a computer! He will give you advice on anything. A lump you say, well he's looked it up,and believes the best course of action is, to accept (((((((hugs))))))) from your online friends, eat well, sleep well (well try), put this lump on the back burner until Tuesday and then call your GP and get it checked out! He could give you a whole list of things it could be, but you are still going to assume the worse, so he won't bother! Instead he believes you should make yourself a nice cuppa, then off to bed.

    He also,suggests that IF you find yourself having horrid thoughts over the weekend, you pop on here and let us help you! You know we can find you a picture on any topic, we might not solve your worries but we might just make you laugh and laughter is definitely the best medicine xxxxx

  • Laughter is the best medicine. That post though, 

    brought tears to my eyes, but in a good way! You are right, I gave it two weeks before I allowed myself to worry about it. And I am glad I can say something on here because I don't want to worry my family, I have caused them enough worry recently!

    Don't know what I would do without you lot! You make me feel better.

    Thank you :D

    To anyone who is still awake, just wanted to tell you about my lovely bc experience this evening.  Went to pub for dinner, saw random colleague with his wife (they live Miles away and I've never met her).  Told colleague why not atound, he introduced me to his wife who had mx 2 years ago and she just instantly gave me a hug.  Amazing, how others who have been through this understand you.  Big hugs ladies xxxx

  • That's lovely Cords, I think the day we were all diagnosed was the day we received a life long membership to a very special club! We will always be here for fellow members, because we gave all walked the same path. Our final destinations may of been different and we may of taken different routes, but we all know what a tough journey it is and how we need to be there for each other. xxxx

    Crazy is good after spending numerous nights awake and over 12 hours at hospitals over 2 days I feel like crazy is normal, if you know what I mean! Crazy comes from waiting for results, I'm waiting for full bone and body scan now and oncologist gone on hols and nobody else will tell me outcome, crazy is verging on mad now! At least Macmillan nurses are being good, I have now been allocated a named nurse who is hopefully going to sort pain mess out, may even help sort my head out, I wish her luck with that one!! I am a cross between a bunny in headlights and a Tasmanian devil at the moment, me and hubby keep swapping between strong and blubbing, strong is winning at moment though. Even though I haven't got a hair on my head, he smiled at me last night just before getting in bed and said he will always see me as the girl (that's stretching it a bit) with the bright red hair! Now that's gushing and I told him not to be crazy, OMG it's catching! Oh well I m going to try and catch few zzzz before I get up, hope everyone has a good day, (((((((BIG HUGS))))))) all round.
