  • do doctors play down breast cancer until they get biopsy results or can they tell by scan?

    I'm awaiting core biopsy results. had it done yesterday. the doctor done breast examination said cuz of my age (26) probably fibroadenoma but when the other doctor done the scan he looked at it and said it looks unusual as fibroadenoma are solid right through, mine has thick walls with a small amount of fluid. so done core biopsy and said probably come back as fibroadnosis instead. not cyst as too thick the walls and would of flattened when fluid removed which didn't. my lump is solid non movable and painless. he said cuz of my age there not treating it as possible cancer but obviously he cant say theres no chance it is. so wondered if anyone had it played down to them and turned out was? I understand they don't want send me home worrying. straight answers please. thanks

  • can you have blocked milk duct over 2 years after stopping breast feeding?

    I have a lump where milk ducts are about 2" big although doesn't feel perfectly round or smooth. it's painless, solid like stone and doesn't move. I have scan and tests at the hospital this Tuesday. my mum keeps saying probably a blocked milk duct. surely i wouldn't get a blocked milk duct now after stopping breast feeding 2 1/2 years ago? and surely if it was from what can remember when I breast fed it would be very painful. this is completely painless, I feel fine

  • my 6yr old son has swollen lymph nodes in his neck?

    my son of 6 has swollen nodes in his neck for about a year now. you can see them without touching. he had a scan few months ago (no other tests) and they said just swollen lymph nodes they should go away. well few months gone by and still there + more. I'm worried something more sinister. can a scan miss this? he is also very skinny, to me lost weight. I just hope it's not bad as I'm already going through tests for breast cancer.

  • hospital appointment on 7th to check for breast cancer?

    I discovered a lump Saturday just gone when I casually itched my chest. I don't know how I've never come across it. it's solid and a bit bigger than 50p, It doesn't feel perfectly round and doesn't move and doesnt hurt at all. you have to press to feel it, it's not visible just looking. it's at the top of the breast under the nipple area. I rarely check as I'm only 26. I thought better check other breast (my left) and arm pit but all feels normal. then checked rest of right breast around the lump and my arm pit and to me the lymph nodes in arm pit feel swollen, also after prodding my right arm pit its now tender. I went doctors yest and she referred me to breast clinic, dr said take a week for appointment to come through. an hour after I leave surgery I get a call from hospital with appointment for week today! fast! got to have ultra scan to start with. I have 2 children youngest is 3 and breast fed both so know how my breasts should feel. I'm a little nervous due to fact does not move

  • family drama. relatives staying when just had baby,help!?

    sorry if this is long but need advice. im 32wks pregnant currently, and basically my partners family live up the line and they have said that they are coming to visit the 1st weekend after baby is born. im fine with this but be best if they sleep at a hotel. we live in a 2 bed flat and also have a 3 year old son. the family that are visiting are his dad and step mum, little sister, older brother and his girlfriend. i know they will be fine with staying at hotel if we mention it to them, but my partner wont say that and said we will manage and that they can all stay here! he thinks his dad and step mum in kids room on floor, our son still sleep in his bed, then us and baby in our room still with his sister on the floor! then his brother and partner on our living room floor! my partner is being so selfish and is not thinking of me at all. im the one that will be up at night breast feeding, and also our son will not be able to play with his toys in the room because of the bed on the floor. and the amount of luggage i got to find room for. i don't need all that after just giving birth! i feel as thou i will leave them all to it and go stay at my mums with kids in my old room. if they stay at hotel to sleep and keep belongings then they can be at ours all day still and have meals at ours. its just the clutter of sleeping and luggage everywhere. what to do?

  • should i do this long distance journey at 32wks?

    basically on the 26th dec we are meant to be going up the line to see family but il be 32wks and the journey will take about 6/7hrs and we will have our 3yr old also in the car. im just worried that il get swollen or deep vein thrombosis or something. ive never traveled that long, that pregnant before. also i have a liver condition so i have weekly tests done right up to when i have the baby, and they said i can expect to have baby any time from now till 38wks, as this condition makes you likely to have premature labour. we are always coming up there, they never seem to come to us. why do we have to do the traveling all the time. also its going to cost a bomb in fuel! sorry about the rant. just would like to know if it is dodgy traveling that long journey at that many wks pregnant? thanks
