Ok,so I get my head round going to breast screening then last night I freaked myself out ... I went to scratch the back of my neck and felt a bump... Hubby said its a spot... But as I couldn't see it as a spot... My mind went in overdrive.... Trying so hard to be calm about it. Don't want to be like this today of all days... It's our anniversary trying to look forward to my fancy meal and the show tonight...but this bugging the heck out of me
Dogs walked off to get hair done hopefully I ll feel alittle better.

Hi
This made me laugh with you , the times I have felt something & then been told its a spot , but unlike you after a few times of saying are you sure , I then have believed it
Now think about it , hubby loves you , yea ? so why would he say its a spot if it wasnt
If he thought it was anything else he would say so because he would be concerned as well , so believe him , yea i no men can be a bit daft , but I think they no a spot when they see one
Also before you got this letter , would you have been feeling or if you had & you were told it was a spot , would you have let it freaked you out as much , maybe not
Remember the letter is not saying we are calling you in because we think you have breast cancer , no , no , it says we are calling you in , like we do all the other thousands of women ,because your name has come onto our list , to say you are in the age group now where you can have a screening , just like when we got into that age group for having smears
Please , I no we worry , I am sat here today feeling so crap & had the worse headache ever , sinus feel the worse ever , I feel the worse I have in a long time & my head is going into overdrive , so I do no what its like , but on this one , I do no you have nothing to worry about hun
Happy Anniversary , how many is it , that he has been a lucky chap
Enjoy it !
Love

I cant add anymore than whywhy has already said, cos shes right......
So....... HAPPY ANNIVERSARY....... Put it to the back of your mind, and don't let the anxiety steal your special day!
Lots of love Ker xx
have a glass of wine for me. Because we have HA we are very aware of our bodily functions and any flaws or slight changes. Try and relax, I know it's not easy, we are all in this together, you are not on your own. Take care
I did the same with a small mole on my arm, I was convinced it was cancer! So off I went to the doctors and they looked at it through a magnifying glass and said its a small mole that you've been scratching! Xx

Winter , they looked at in through a magnifying glass , made me laugh , that lump I said I had on my neck , they couldnt feel it , see it , & even when they scanned it they said they didnt no exactly what they were suppose to be scanning , I was most offended to be honest , cos I knew
A nice enjoyable scratch turns into a full-on health anxiety attack when I feel a lump. Normally an insect bite or just a plain spot come up but it sends me silly especially if it's where I can't see it like my back or on my neck.
I did the same lol makes you laugh when you look back, but I had a huge lump in my breast and I panicked like mad! then realised I had being doing painting day before,, it was that I had actually used muscles I never knew I had lmaoo! embarrassed when I told the doctor
Happy Anniversary, hope you both have a lovely day xxxxx
Ok guys I've been alittle silly haven't i?:)) You all know that when takes hold even over something stupid, it's horrible.
Whywhy you are right with the letter!
