I'm feeling really nervous now yet I know how irrational I'm being! Three years ago I had a breast cancer scare [I'm 52] which thank heaven turned out to be a benign phyllodes tumour - rather rare apparently, I was a bit proud of that! On Friday I felt a really odd sore pain in my right boob, something I'd never felt before. I couldn't find a lump but I asked my husband to check again and he thought he could feel something.
Panic!!! Luckily I managed to get to see my doctor that evening - he had a proper good check over and couldn't feel anything which put my mind at rest, he was very reassuring but he said he'd refer me just to be 150% sure - a belt and braces approach he said.
I've got an appointment for a mammogram on Thursday morning which is good and what do you know - the pain went on Tuesday. I felt so much better!! But this morning I logged into my e-mails and found a spam message - and it was about breast cancer!
You wouldn't beleive how much this has made me nervous again - I keep feeling it's a sign! This is totally mad and irrational - how can a spam company be a message from fate?!! I would so appreciate anyone reminding me how mad this is and if anybody else has found their HA increased by 100% by something so STUPID!!:weep:
