Why aren't they doing anything? Breast lump........?
3 weeks ago i went to the doctor with a lump in my breast. The doctor checked me over and said that she doesn't want to say aloud what it can and can't be as it doesn't move when my arm is upright and things.
untie died from Breast cancer at 36years old, i don't want to have cancer and the doctors don't come across to be doing anything.
What can i do?
Thank you x
Answers: What kind of idiot is your doctor? Do you live surrounded by North Korea?
your current doctor and get a new one. A good doctor communicates effectively beside patients and orders appropriate diagnostic tests.
It is very unlikely for a personage your age to have breast cancer, but your family history is obviously troubling. You stipulation a mammogram.
Have you have the mammogram yet? If there was any adjectives of a suspicious tumor (potentially cancerous) they would have contacted you within 2 weeks of the appointment.
If you have not had your mammogram yet, net sure they do both views. I had a lump scare and the radiologist solitary did 1 view because, I was "too young to enjoy breast cancer". My Ob/Gyn ripped him a new one and I had to go backbone to get both views.
Good luck and I hope and pray it is benign.
You can call up the clinic and ask them for your appointment to be brought forward. If your on private condition care its a bonus but generally there is no difference contained by how you are treated, just the facilities are different. Dont worry yourself to much at your age of 19 its more potential to be a cyst that can be sort pretty easily. Source(s): Used to work in Radiology
That doesn't make any sense. But you need to be more clear. What do you mean by lump? what size? shape, texture? does it hurt? where on earth is it located exactly? (deep in the breast, right under the skin etc)
the dr's office and ask what's going on. It is possible you only have fibroids, surrounded by which case the dr. might not feel it necessary to notify you.
If you have the money private consultation is the path forward.
The problem you will find is that after the tests it will take another 4 weeks to get the results. Unfortunately that's the speed on the NHS.
repetition and persistence
keep going to your doctor, hold on to mythering and they will get you checked in faster to shut you up
then - if they thought it be cancer, they would move pretty swiftly anyway
but then - it is nice to know what it is
y if i have answered on a sensative topic
good luck, hope it turns out OK

I'm sorry you hold this worry.
e you are in the UK; if your doctor has referred you as an emergency, you must carry an appointment for testing within two weeks of referral (it's unlikely that your tests will include a mammogram, as immature women's breast tissue is too dense for mammography to be a useful diagnostic tool).
It is possible that she has referred you but not as an emergency as your age makes it extremely unlikely that you hold breast cancer. It's almost unheard of in under 25s and fewer than 0.1% of adjectives those diagnosed are under 30; only 5% are under 40 and most (89%) are over 50.
Although your aunt was very young for breast cancer, if hers be the only case of breast cancer in your family connections, it's unlikely that it was hereditary.
Even it it has be established that her breast cancer was due to one of the rare inherited inaccurate genes known to be responsible for hereditary breast cancer, there is simply a 50% chance that her sibling (your parent) also inherited the gene and, if they did, a 50% chance that you adjectives it too. If neither of your parents carries one of the genes, nor do you.
