Found a pea sized lump think cancer as spread feeling really unwell headache feeling dizzy no energy scared worried not sleeping g eating staying in bed all day
Hi sadgirl58&laurabods,
It is such a worry. The waits are the worst.
I was in your position lat may. I had a lump which unfortunately did turn out to be cancer.
However I'm in remission now. I had a lumpectomy and removal of sentinels nodes. I was grade 3 her2neg erpostitve prpositive. I've since had chemo, radiotherapy and now on Letrozole for 5 years and 6 monthly bone infusions.
It's hard going but doable. Once you have results and treatment plan if needed you will take back some if the control as you will have something to focus on.
I cried, screamed panicked prior to getting results I think we all do.
Use your family friens and sites like here and cancer care. They are all informative and supportive.
I wish you both well happy to answer any questions of my journey if helpful. Sending hugs xx
