relapse

[herbie73]

Hi all, well I haven't posted here for nearly 2 weeks was doing well, went to drs 2 weeks tomorrow who checked my boobs and said every thing was fine, really believed him been really good since, still checking once a day though, until yesterday when I was poking about my right boob and came across what feels like a gland, smooth round and squishy, there is also a slightly smaller one next to it, now I've started to worry again, not as bad as before, but keep thinking about it and feeling it, I know its probably always been there, but need a little bit of reassurance. Thanx guys xxx

Big hugs Herbie xx

I know what this is like. I totally understand the c word fears with boobs and I have loads of lumps and bumps I can only feel when I prod. I have had my boobs examined though and Dr was happy to trying to trust what the Dr thought, they wouldn't take any chances if they were worried.

I had one lump once that the Dr couldn't even feel but I could and I went for an ultrasound (was clear) but the nurse I saw could feel it and said not to worry but did a biopsy anyway and it was clear, just a lipoma.

My boobs feel lumpy and bumpy at the best of times and used to change loads before I had a Mirena coil (I don't get periods at the moment so my boobs don't change much) I would find they were more lumpy before a period.

Sorry you have had a relapse with your HA, I have had the same happen today so know how it is. Hope your mind relaxes soon hun xx

Thanx guys, I'm actually on my period at the moment, so they probably feel more pronounced at the moment, sometimes I feel I will never get back to pre breast cancer ha, I was doing really well, hope this is just a blip xxx
