How did you find the breast cancer?

Hi I am 35 and have had 3 breast tumors removed in the last few years. I have cysts and fibrocyctic breasts. 3 weeks ago I found a breast lump just under the skin of my left breast and one in the armpit. That side just feels heavy. When I had lumps before they always had hurt and that is how I found them. These 2 however do not hurt. I have a mammogram and ultrasound on Wednesday but the waiting is the worst. Has anyone else had this happen to them after having benign tumors removed in the past. I have had no energy and just fatigue prior to finding the lumps. It's just extremely odd for me to have such a lack of energy as I'm always an active person.

It would be easy to tell you all sorts and that would set your mind awry. Everybody is different, I honestly think that you should try to do as much as possible to keep your mind busy. It's not easy at all. Try to think positively about a good result, however if the news is the worst, please do not see it as the end of the world. Be as positive as you can be because outlook and being positive really does help you and is half the battle. Sending you positive thoughts and much love. Lainey66 💐💐💐💐💐

I agree with Laney66 we are all different. Going through the discovery, waiting and then results is a really roller coaster ride and that emotional ride can wipe your energy out even when perfectly healthy so don't read too much into it. Be kind to yourself and allow a few treats until you know what is what. Fingers crossed. X
