(name changed as friends know my MN name and I don't want anyone to know this.)
Have found a small lump in my breast. Check myself regularly, and also have had lumps under arms in the past (always at time of the month) but this feels different.
Have been putting off seeing doctor as so scared, and wanted to wait until after period this month. Period been and gone and lump still there.
Am seeing doctor today. But am literally shaking. Not even because I'm convinced it's bad, but because I'm scared of what I will have to go through now.
What will the likely process be? Will I have to go straight to hospital? Will they need to operate in some way or will other tests be done first? How long will this all take and how long until I know what it is for sure?
Anyone been through this and can give me some idea of what will happen to me?
Sorry if I seem naive or daft questions. No experience of this and scared to death.
Thank you
