Anyone here ever had or has breast cancer?!


Question: Anyone here ever had or has breast cancer!?
Before I start!.!.!. I have a doctors appt!. on Monday so no one tell me to go to the doctor!. I found an abnormal lump about the size of a grape right under my armpit, and it's hard!. It's in the breast tissue, but it could also just be a cyst!. I was just wondering if there is anyone out there who maybe has had a lump or is currently battling breast cancer that couple tell me if this is maybe serious!. I'm just worried because I've never had one before and I just want a person's insight on this!. Like I said, my appt!. is on monday, but until then I'm a little worried!. :( Help!?Www@Answer-Health@Com

Try not to think the worst!. It is very common for these lumps to benign, cysts or fibroademas!. I have had all of these, plus a malignant lump that was removed three years ago, followed by lymph node removal and then chemo and radiation!. I now have two lumps in the opposite breast that have just been reported as non malignant!.
I cant tell you not to worry, as I have been off work for a month due to the stress of worrying about these!. Unfortunately, the process from the time you first find the lump to when you know whether it is okay or not is so long that the mind does wander far too much!.
With the malignant lump I also had a cyst!. They told me that the pain I was feeling that initiated the investigation was from the cyst, not the cancer!. Apparently, the cancerous lump would not have caused the pain I was feeling, and it was lucky the cyst did create pain that was why I went to be checked!. The cancer had already gone to one of the lymph nodes, but if I had not had the checks it well may have gone much further!. My doctor ALWAYS insist on BOTH the mammogram AND an ultrasound!. Often one of these doesnt pick up what the other one does!. This is true as these latest lumps didnt show on the mammogram, only the ultrasound!. I hope this helps you, and I do wish you the very best of outcomes!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Yes it could be serious and it is normal to be anxious but I am glad you are going to the doctor promptly because although you are feeling scared most times it is NOT cancer!. If it is cancer the sooner it is diagnosed the much better outcome for you!. It is no use telling you not to worry as i have been there so i do understand you worrying!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

listen i know how you feel i have been there i went for a check up and they found 2 lumps i had always felt them before but it was causing pain so they sent me to get an ultra-sound i was so scared i felt like vomiting i went in and when they were checking me i started crying cause i was scared but luckily it was just tissue and i was fine i had never been so scared in my whole life!.
I will pray that you will be ok but don't worry you will be alright try not to stress easier said than done!.

It has been said that 9 out of 10 lumps found in the breasts turn out to be non-cancerous, or benign!. Nothing you can do until then except try to relax and breathe :) I wish you the best of luck!Www@Answer-Health@Com

Everyone is worried whenever they find an abnormal lump and you are doing the right thing by seeing the doctor!. I don't have breast cancer but my sister does, she was diagnosed in February and is currently undergoing chemotherapy!. She had a lump in her breast and went to the doctors in January and they said it was just fluid!. Then when she went again in February they decided she needed a scan and they then said it was a tumour!. I've also known plenty of women who have found lumps and they've turned out to be benign cysts!. The only consolation I can give you is that you're not alone, so many women go through this!. I really hope it turns out to be nothing but if it is cancer, just look at women like Kylie and see how they get through it!. The treatment is awful but it will give you your life back once it's finished!. Good luck for Monday, I hope your fears are unfounded!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
