breast lump found but no appointment till 8th July

[MissV]

Hi, this is my first real post but have lurked for a good while now.
Whilst washing in the shower on Wednesday night i found a largeish lump in my boob. I made an appointment at my GP's the following day and he checked it out - finding the lump straight away without prompting. He, amongst other things, asked if there was a family history of Breast Cancer and i said no, this isnt strictly true as im adopted so dont know this info but i didnt think about it till later that i had answered wrong.
As there was a problem with the internet connection the GP posted out a letter for the NHS Choose and Book service which i have now sorted and the next available appointment is the 8th July!
Im not sure i can cope with the stress i am feeling for all this time and i'm wondering has anyone had any similar experiences who can put me at ease. Do you think if i tell the GP that i am not aware of my family history that this will change anything?

No diagnosis yet, I get that on Friday. I had mammogram and 2 biopsies under ultrasound taken on Monday. Consultant said just from looking at the pictures he's sure it's BC and we'll get the pathology analysis and discuss treatment on Friday.

I hope your appointment on Friday goes ok. The diagnosis is such a terrible shock. Are you quite young? I was 41 when I was diagnosed, but I have met a lot of women much younger than me. The mammograms aren't nice are they!

I'm 43.

Now booked for full boob job in 2 weeks so at least I don't have too much time to think about it.

Sorry, can't write much more now as my head's spinning, but thank-you for asking.

It is such a shock, and they do work very fast once you have a diagnosis. ((((((((BIG HUGS)))))). My head was reeling too when I was first diagnosed. It all seems quite terrifying. You may find Breast Cancer Care helpful for phone support before your operation.

I'm sorry I don't have anything very useful to say. After I had calmed down a bit, I found it very helpful to realise that I wasn't alone.
