Jojo.. most docs would send any woman to be checked out quickly with breast lumps.. and there is usually nothing to worry about.. when my mother went the nurse said most lumps had totally gone by the time the 2 weeks came round. It isn't worth worrying until you know if it is justified.. big big hugs xxx
It is a fast track system to get checked out these days
try not to worry JoJo:kisses3:

Right, I'm going to go and get a whisky and coke to try and help me warm up. I've tried all sorts and nothing works for any length of time so resorting to alcohol which usually worksThen if my hands warm up enough I'll start the ironing, terrified at the minute of dropping the iron my right hand is so cold :eek:
