Joker Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 I've been having some breast pain and other issues. I found a lump yesterday. I was able to get into the dr. tomorrow afternoon and I'm a bit scared. This has been the absolute worst year for me healthwise and I'm just not able to be optimistic right now. I'm so sick of doctors and feeling bad. I don't normally do this but I feel like I need all the help I can get right now. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joker Posted November 14, 2012 Author Share Posted November 14, 2012 Thank you all so much! No one in my family, other than dh, knows so I feel like there's not anyone thinking good thoughts or praying for me. Might sound stupid but it helps to know someone is. I'm usually an optimistic person but I feel tapped out this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

datgh Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 Last year was my year for falling apart so I know what it feels like to think that one more thing is going to push you over the edge. Somehow you do handle it and get through it. Sending prayers and :grouphug:. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Catwoman Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 :grouphug::grouphug::grouphug: Praying for you!!! And I know you're going to worry, no matter what anyone says, but please try to remember that the vast and overwhelming majority of lumps are NOT cancer. Please update us when you can. I'll be thinking of you and praying that you'll find out tomorrow that it's absolutely nothing to worry about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

QuirkyKidAcademy Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 I just went thru that in the last 72 hrs. I got the "benign cyst, no treatment necessary" at 2:30 this afternoon. Best words ever spoken. I'll be praying you get good news very soon. (((hugs))) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mama Geek Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 I just went through this in the last couple of weeks as well. My tests came back fine as well. It was very difficult while waiting to find out answers. The ladies here were real supportive along with some IRL friends and family. My prayers go out to you. :grouphug: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Catwoman Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 Bumping this for more prayers, and hoping we'll be reading a very positive and happy update soon. I know she has her doctor's appointment this afternoon, so I'm sure she could use some more prayers and good thoughts right now. She must be really scared. :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joker Posted November 14, 2012 Author Share Posted November 14, 2012 Thanks everyone! I'm not sure what to think. Dr. feels certain it's glandular and wants me to keep an eye on it and return in 6 weeks for him to check again. I'm glad he thinks it's nothing but I know I'm probably going to keep worrying about it for the next 6 weeks. :glare: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what I expected but he said he felt certain it wasn't serious and would rather see me again in six weeks. He listed off a few changes and said if they happened he wanted me back sooner.

He listed off a few changes and said if they happened he wanted me back sooner. It does sound like he's pretty confident! The mammogram would be nice just for peace of mind, but admittedly I don't know if there are any downsides to it. I hope you can find some peace until the 6-week recheck. I'm certain you'll be watching carefully for those changes he mentioned. :grouphug: again! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know I'm a paranoid lunatic, but it doesn't seem to stop me from being a worrier. :glare: I'm sure your doctor was 100% sure it was nothing, or he would have immediately scheduled additional tests. Realistically, he would have scheduled the tests if he was 80% sure it was nothing, just to be positive, so I truly think everything will be just fine. I'll pray for you -- both for your health and for your calm and patience. Waiting is hard. But remember, doctors see these symptoms all the time, and they get very, very good at recognizing a problem, so I really believe he's right about this. :grouphug::grouphug::grouphug: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
