This lump has the possibility of being cancerous. The great thing is that your doctor isn't taking chances and is having it removed straight away. You need to try and remain positive. You are having the surgery tomorrow and they will then sent the lump off to the path lab to be tested. You will have the results within 2-3 days. Hopefully it's benign but if it is malignant you will be given treatment. Family and friends support is key to your recovery and keeping a poisitve outlook is very important.
I have not only worked in Oncology wards but I also had a hysterectomy last year in my 20s due to Ovarian cancer....hang in there....you will get better !!!!! xx

girl i have a lump in my breast and i did a few test, and i stop doing more test nd the lump is getting bigger,but the lady who did my mamogram said she had a big lump and it was harmone problem caused by her eating too much meat and she changed her diet and it went away, my aunt told me of a woman who use the flax seed oil and her lump went away, then this herbalist was on a tv show and he says flax seed oil remove the lump plus it kills the cancer cells. Girl i know for a fact that the dam kimotherapy is a killer and that was said by a doctor who had a lump the size of a mellon,she changed her diet and she got better and was giving us a lecture.when you go to the doctor you can ask him about the use of flax seed oil.i will also pray for you and you pray for me too.all the best.

Don't worry now and don't jump to any conclusions. Wait until all the results are in and you will probably be told it is just a cyst. Your doctor is being cautious as better safe than sorry.
Good luck tomorrow

i went thru it too. i guess the hardest part was the waiting, especially sending away the lump and waiting for the results. just keep really busy and surround yourself with good friends and family. positive attitute and just keep being happy and smile.

I understand-so much waiting and so much testing and it seems to never end. So much for your nerves, right? Therapy and medication has helped my anxiety and depression.
