I am going to the doctors tomorrow(earliest appointment since the other day) to have a lump in my breast looked at.. it started off as a hard pea size and has grown since then.. it is hard and doesn't move at all.. obviously when something like this happens you automaticlly think the worst (like i have). has anyone else had anything similar and what will i have to do at the doctors? very worried fairy. xx

Hi Tooth fairy Just wanted to say good luck and I'm sure all will be well. you are definately doing the right thing getting it checked...if it's anything nasty (which it probably won't be) then treatment will be more successful is its caught early. Huge (((((((HUGS))))))) for you. Sarah xxx

I haven't, my good fairy, but can imagine the worry. I shall be thinking of you all day. :-) Joy

my ex girlfriend has had this in both boobs doc removed one (lump) it was an hormonal thingy, so fingers crossed and a hug((((((0))))))) Malc

Good luck, I hope it goes well. I had a lump, not on my breast but on my shoulder, it was a cyst which I had removed. Will be thinking of you Laura xx

thankyou all. Gillie, will you please let me know how you get on? love to you all. xx

Will be thinking of you, Miss Sparkle, and wishing you well.....XXXXXBC

I've got quite a few lumps in both breasts and have had two removed, which turned out to be harmless. The Doctor will just examine you and refer you to a specialist - this is routine. The specialist will most likely do a Biopsy - he use a very small needle to take a sample of the lump and may well be able to give you some idea of what you are dealing with then. I shall be thinking of you tomorrow - try not to worry too much. K x

Hello. Are you back from the doctor yet, my good fairy? :-) Joy

Hi all.. well i did it, i went to see the doc (finally) i walked into the room and burst into tears! i managed to mumble out what was wrong with me. She examined my breasts and found the lump, so i can tell my hubby now.. ''No dear is it NOT just my imagination!'' i have been refered to a specialist for either a biopsy or an ultrersound..apparently i will be seen in the next couple of weeks.. thankyou all for being so understanding and sharing your experiences with me, it's just nice to talk to people who understand. xxx

Well done, sweetie....the first hurdle over, now sit back and put your feet up, you have had a traumatic day...XXXBC

Take Care All the best Germaine x

That's the hardest part over! I'm sure everything will be fine. I have to go for a follow up ultra sound tomorrow. They want to check my cyst has fully gone. If not they will use a fine needle to drain it - I can assure everyone that having had it done twice before it is not painful at all. And this is from someone who hates pain, needles, doctors, hospital - well everything medical really. Jane xx

fairy youll be in good hands now , theyll look after you im glad you plucked up courage to go to doctors and glad you got one to listen sympathetically (geese that looks too long, hope i spelt it right!) tell hubby your trading him in for a new model take care keep us informed

Hi Sparkle hope all goes well for your appointment with the specialist.. Found lump myself too, also waiting for appointment, probably at Wm Harvey at Ashford. Have had several lumps and abscess removed in the past but this one feels different. Can't do anything, just have to pray for no bad news....and an appointment to get the ball rolling. Good wishes Jan

Holding your hand, Fairy. xx

Hi Tooth Fairy I hope everything goes well for you, good luck. Heather

Hi Tooth Fairy, Never had a scare like this but I can imagine how worried you are, that awful feeling of wanting to see someone right now just to put your mind at rest, let us know how you get on, Will be thinking of you. lots of hugs Denise.

Hello, my good fairy. So pleased you will have tests soon and get it sorted. Always here for you, :-) Joy

Well, i don't know if this is good news or bad news... i only went the doc yesterday and the hospital have just rung me and put me in for monday 27th june! i'm glad i don't have to wait long but a bit worried that my doc thinks it's serious enough to get an appointment so soon! will keep you all posted, thankyou all for just being there! xx
