u know what..these things have a weird way of clashing...
im 25..only yesterday i got a lump removed from my breast under generl anestetic in a city hospital. it was my 2nd one removed...first one i got out when i was 18.
the fear that gripped me the 1st time was unbelievable... especially when it was sore and painful to touch..i was convinced i was gonna die... so i didnt tell anyone... i left it there for 6 mths... b4 i realised it had gotten bigger... so i ran to my doctor.. she sent me in for tests...biopsys..and then the surgeon told me it wud be best to get itremoved cox it was draining all my energy. i did.
it took 6 weeks for the soreness to go but then i was fine...
and yesterday i went thru it all again... same breast, same place, lump was back...7 yrs aint bad for it to have stayed away... mine was a benign fibroidanoma... and im wating for the test results of yesterdays op to come thru in the next week... its a day procedure...so ud be home in the evening of the day u go to hospital... if u do need to go....
my thoughts and prayers are with you mandy.....
just go to ur doctor and explain what u've noticed.... everything will be o.k
Thank you for sharing that with me. The comfort and support I have found here is truly amazing.
I am still scared, I keep trying to remember that FEAR is FALSE EVIDENCE APEARING REAL, but this is a whole new ballgame for me. And to be able to share with other women that have been down this path before has helped me to release the panic. I have been calmed down by all of your loving words.
I will keep you all posted.
Yours in recovery,
Mandy
