Ugh, I know that stressed feeling all too well. I had a lump scare a few months back which, thankfully, just ended up going away but the 'It should be fine' from your GP never feels like enough! Fingers crossed for you that this clears up quick and the antibiotics do their job <3

I was recalled last year after a mammogram, I was going off my head with worry,turned out it just wasn't a clear picture,phew!
I've had cysts drained and they apparently are very common,it may feel like a lump but it kinda moves around under your fingers,gives many a woman a scare,I'm getting to know how they feel now

Oh dear Tinkerbell, that sounds pretty horrible
Thank you Jodie_28, it's a horrible scary feeling isn't it. And Jaypo I would be the same. I want my mammogram on Monday but really not looking forwad to a Christmas of worrying about the results.
CLKD - the line is still there. But it has not extended, I marked it with pen last night to check this. I like to think it looks fainter and would feel hopefull except my nipple area is still sore.
I know I'm probably worrying about nothing but I can't help it. I had to give a smashing job up recently due to anxiety, it seems I am in its grip totally at the moment.

Ask the Radiologist if she can tell you if she suspects any anomalies. Explain your worries. It can take a while for the films to be Reported on by a Consultant perhaps he/she could ring with results as it's close to C.mas? If you don't ask you won't get. Though even if there is something that requires intervention, a couple of weeks probably won't make any difference. Once I began treatment I felt that I was dealing with 'it' which gave me a sense of control.
