Cancer or what??

It started about a month or two ago. I discovered a lump with very bad pain at one of my armpit. It hurts so badly that I could not even wear my newly bought corset. But since cancerous lump is not suppose to be painful, so I thought it cannot be a dangerous lump. However, I am still worried as I have a aunt, who was diagnosed with breast cancer. Better see the doctor, right?
Hubby took leave and we had to run some errands today so I took the opportunity to go to my gynae for a pap smear and did a ultrasound on the breasts. Luckily no suspicious lump were found and since I am still breastfeeding, it could be due hormonal changes that cause lymph node swelling.
Well, I definitely not afraid of dying, but since I am a mother with 3 kids now, I hope to live longer, at least to see them grow up well, get married and built their own family. *Phiew*…..I feel so relieve!!!

pheewwwww…luckily u r fine!!! now only i know that cancerous lump is not suppose to be painful :O it’s time for me to read more about this woman killer.
I have 3 lumps on my right breast also. Furthermore my family got history of breast cancer. But i went for scan..twice ..once at normal gp n another at specialist. see i m even more scared. Then doctor said NON cancerous. last time blog before.
worst thing is, i told one of my boss. she said common wor. she got 20+ in her breast…
Thank god it’s not cancer.
Oh it’s not cancerous lump. BTW it’s 3rd breast? I read some mommied in the forum did mentioned they have 3rd breast which like a lump near their armpit.
Wow! I was really scared for a second there!
Good thing its not cancer.. pheww
Gosh! this post made me worried. Just do a regular check up if needed. and yes…must have long life to see the children grows up well!
good to know you are ok!
gosh, i know how that feels. I’m so glad the results of the check was ok. it sort of gives us this nudge to appreciate of family and enjoy life to the fullest
Good to know that it’s nothing..
Sometimes when I feel that something’s not right, I too pray to God to please make my life a little bit longer, at least till the children are big enough to fend for themselves..
Sometimes it’s not that we’re afraid of dying..but more afraid of how our family will be like when we’re not around..
good to hear something positive there. but its best to go for a follow up in another month or two. take care
I am back! Well, I realized it’s been such a long time I never visit your blog. It seems that you just discovered Qiqi’s eye problem is it? Hopefully , she can get cured.
You take care too.
Yeap I felt like this once but didn’t bother to do anything.
Phew! Never ever take health for granted.
what a relief. Glad everything turned out ok.
