I had been doing so well with my HA in recent months. Was starting to sort some issues in my life out, and whenever HA cropped up I was usually able to rationalise the thoughts.
But it's taken hold again over the past few days. I did a breast check a couple of days ago and can feel a lump in the upper part of my breast. Instant panic.
I had a mammogram just over 3 months ago and got the all clear. I'm trying to tell myself that a lump (about the size of a smallish pea) couldn't grow in that short space of time but I'm worried now in case it's an aggressive form of cancer. I've heard about this but I don't know how quickly aggressive cancer can grow.
I'm doing my best not to ring the doctor, thinking if I do that I am giving in to my HA. But I can't stop the worrying, the "what if" thoughts won't go away.
I'd really appreciate any thoughts or advice on this.
