I’ve not had fibroids so I’m no expert BUT if you are in UK then the NHS is very keen to ensure that everyone’s health problems are dealt with. So phone your GP’s surgery TODAY. if you are not in uk, do you have a breast nurse contact?

I had those in my breast for five years, please keep checking them. One of mine turned cancerous and spread, luckily I w kept checking them, saved my life. Early detection. Just my story. Please take care honey and best of luck to you

I went and got a check up and she didn’t think it was anything sinister but I got an urgent referral and I’m going to the hospital next Tuesday to hopefully see what’s going on x

Please, just to be on the safe side, get it checked out. Just keep your social distance, please just make an appointment.stay safe.xx
