Good luck with your appoitment.
I will share my expirences from this week with you.
I had my appoitment at the hosptial breast clinic after a referal from my GP.
I reported at the front desk and went on through to the waiting room. There were quite a few couples in there, mostly around the middle age group. I noticed some men get called up while there wives waited for them.(before this I just assumed they where here for there wives).
Anyhow my turn after about 10-15 mins waiting(not to bad).
I went into the small room and was told to wait. A few mins later the consaltant comes in with 3 other people, 2 of them being students(great). They asked if I minded them being there. I just smiled and said no problem.
First of all he asked a few questions about what the problem was etc, I told him that I had a lump under each nipple and it hurts. He asks about any family histroy with cancer and give him the low down.
The big moment- he asks me to take my shirt off, and place my hands on my hips while sat on the table. I do this and he has a feel, he then asks my to lay down and take my pants down
this bit was very embrassing esp as thigns just seem to "get smaller", luckly he pulled back the curtian so the students couldnt get a look. After a feel around down there I put my clothes back on and he hits me with the quote of the week.
"I am happy to leave it if your happy to live with it"
I said no I am not actualy and he asked why(looking quite irrated). I told him it hurt and I was depressed about it. He said ok and arranged for me to have a blood test, I asked him about anti estrogens as my gyno only came on in the last 6 weeks, he asked where did i read that and I said online, he then gave me a 3 month perscrioption for amdrix and made a follow up in 3 months.(he mentioned surgey but said you will have to pay for it).
Anyhow I should find out blood test results next week, also I have decied not to take the amdrix stuff as I feel I dont want to mess up my hormone levels.
Sorry for going on so long, I wantede to give you as much info as possible so you can get an idea of what happens.
If I where you id make a list of a couple of questions you might want to ask him, my brain kind of froze up while in there.
Good luck
