So I'm waking up and I decide to do my self-exam, since I'm already flat on my back.

Ok, ok, ok, oh shit. A nice lump right above the underside ridge on the left one.

I'm hoping the lump I felt is just menstrual bloating. But I've made an appointment for my annual exam. Not too worried. Cancer doesn't run in my family. But the fact it hurts now that I've been prodding it and has been uncomfortable for a week anyway, that worries me.

But still. Oh shit.

Updates after the dr.

Ah, now I see why you were so frustrated with the appointment-making process...

More often than not, painful lumps are benign. They may be fibrous, which can be helped by a reduction of caffeine consumption and a daily 600 IU vitamin e capsule.

Good luck - and try not to worry too much!
