hello

i went to gp today after a sleepless night after finding a lump

she has said i will have an appointment at hospital within 2 weeks

does this mean she is really worried??

what will happen at hospital

there is only me and my 4 yr old and i dont talk to friends about personal stuff

i keep crying and cant stop thinking the worst now she has said hospital

how will i know how long i will be there as i will have to find some child care(with out letting anyone know why)

thanks for listeningx

sorry me again

they have already rung up and i have an appointment on the 17th

she said they have sent a letter explaining where to go as its not a hospital local to me

the whole thing terrifys me,going and trying to find a strange hospital on my own

and whats going to happen

she said to allow 2-3 hrs as they do everything they need and results there and then

this makes me think they think its bad

i cant stop crying when i think of my lad with out me

i cant get into positive mode at all and i havnt even been yet lol

thanks for listening

hello babes, welcome to the board,

i know how hard the waiting is i myself am currently awaiting an appointment to undergo a p[roceedure where they pass a camera into my womb to check for cvancer due to abnormal smear result in the netx of my womb (further in than cervix)  it give syou far far far stooo much time to worry about the worst case scenarios ... i know how your feeling

i also had an appointment in 2006 after i found a lump.........  two week referrals are very very standard babes... they offer every single lady who has a confirmed lump by the gp an appointment so quickly.

they have tolld you 2-3 hours so that they can properly test your lump thats all... when i went i was in and out in an hour.... my lump was fine.

you may be in and out after just ten minutes dependiong on what the specialist can feel.

i hope thats put you a little more at ease..... although if you feel anything like i do now then am still sending you massssssssiiiiiiiiiiiivvvvvvvvvvvvveeeeeeeeeee ( hugs)0)

thankyou for the reply

and sorry to hear about your troubles

i have now told a friend via text as i find it very hard to talk about with out crying lol

she is insisting on coming with me and im not sure how i feel about it

im so not good at accepting comfort, im so used to coping on my own

im a 42 single mum lol

thankyou for confirming  what id been told

trouble is by next week my boobs will be so sore to touch as they always are 2 weeks out of 4 so not sure how he will feel anything?

im trying to keep busy and not keep crying infront of the 4 yr old,im ok till i look at him and think what if....
