Hi everyone,
I’ve been referred to a breast clinic after describing my symptoms to my gp over the phone (we couldn’t visit face to face because of COVID). I’m absolutely petrified. I’m only 33, I called the GP after noticing a long, hard cord-like lump running from under my boob into it. I don’t know how else to describe it, it’s not like a round lump it’s like a hard vein.
I’ve no idea where it came from and now I’m checking both boobs to see what else I can find and I’m convinced the cord thing leads to a lump, and I can feel smaller ones all over both boobs.
My health anxiety is awful so I’ve been having trouble sleeping and focusing and it’s taken over my mind. I spiral into panic whenever I hear from the doctors or think about going to the breast clinic.
My anxiety is so bad I can barely eat and when I do I have tummy troubles.
I just want to go to the clinic and get this over so I know what I’m dealing with, the not knowing is exhausting me. :(
