    Breast clinic....anybody else?

    This two week wait is hell.
    I just wondered if anyone else out there is currently waiting to be seen at the breast clinic? I could really do with a buddy!

    Yes, its horrible, awful. I'm not in the same position - quite - but am now 4 weeks (tomorrow) waiting for my mammogram results! Honestly, all I can say is to expect that it will feel this way and carry on living your life as normally as you can......

    I got an abnormal scan and had to wait for a week for a re-scan then another week for the results - just carry on as normal and do not let it take over your life.

    Re: Breast clinic....anybody else?

    Thanks all!
    I’m holding it together ok for now...but I’m only 2 days into the wait. I’m not sure how long I can keep calm or strong as my HA can be so unpredictable! I’m honestly more scared of the anxiety than the breast lump!
    Right now, I’m pretty sure it’s a cyst. I think it’s even got a bit smaller since my period ended....though I’m not totally sure. That*might* just be wishful thinking and my way of coping! I can roll it around between my fingers...which is good. But if I palpate the lump from above, it feels like a hard marble...so not so good!
    Hope I get my appointment very soon!

    Odds are you will be fine. Certainly sounds like a cyst and over 90%of breast referrals turn out to be benign. Good luck! Xxx

    Thanks Jojo! I’m surprisingly ok!
    Knowing I’m getting my symptom checked out is soooo much more reassuring than living with the uncertainty that health anxiety taunts me with everyday!
    So weirdly, I feel calmer than usual!
    (Naturally, I’m still pooping my pants though!
    3 days to go....
