I am super stressed out!
Weeks ago, I was having leg pain so I went to the dr. He sends me for an US of the leg to rule out clots. While I'm there, I point out a breast lump that I've had for a while Good news: No clot Bad News: they found a mass in my groin that could be a lipoma or fatty tissue. Get referred to surgeon. The mammo says the lump is "probably benign".
Go to the surgeon who says the groin is probably a lymph node and hey, you have other swollen lymph nodes lets schedule a ct scan and a whole bunch of labs...
I know all of this is probably nothing and they're just being extra cautious since I have no other symptoms but just getting all this stuff scheduled while I try and deal with dh's and my mom's ongoing hospitalizations I am feeling like I'm going over the edge! And I want the breast mass out. "probably benign" is not comforting to me as I lost a close friend aged 43 in Feb due to breast cancer. And I dont want to talk about it in the house b/c I dont want to stress my kids out even more.
