So the doctor thinks it is probably okay

I went today - really dreading the experience if truth be told.
I'm not accustomed to getting my boobs out in public and I'm certainly not accustomed to letting people I barely know have a feel of them.
But needs must. I kept thinking that if something is up, I'd rather know that spend my life worrying about it.
I went and the doctor did an examination while I tried not to cringe with embarrassment (which was easier than it sounded because my GP is lovely and put me at ease).
Anyway, the upshot is that yes, she felt a lump. No, she doesn't think it is anything serious. But it needs checking anyway - so I just have to wait for a referral to the local breast clinic and see what happens.
