Hey..
Im 18 and basically 2days ago I found a small lump in my right breast. I know that the chances of me having cancer are slim but I am sooo scared and don't realy know wat 2 do. Couple of months ago I had mumps and ever since then my swollen lymph nodes havn't really gone bak 2 normal size, how they were before. Now that i've found this lump im getting realy paranoid that I have some sort of cancer. I've started having slight aches and pains all over my body but I don't know if im just being paranoid. Havn't told anyone yet...Cos I have exams at the moment and am feeling very stressed. I don't know what 2 do....Im going to go to the doctor soon. Anyone help? :(

But considering youve got exams and this is going to playing on your mind so much try and go to the doctors... Its probably nothing but at least yoll know and stop worrying so you can put your mind at rest... Let us know how you get on... Hugs x x x
