Not a good morning
Jul. 8th, 2004 11:25 amSo 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.

I have fibrocystic breast disease..it just means I get lumps in my breasts all the time that aren't anything, just solid (fibrous) cysts. Rule of thumb by my gynie is that if they move and hurt, that's good. You can also try cutting back on your caffeine intake and see what that does. Fibrocystic things are aggravated by caffeine.

Praying for you.
