I was told my tumour was benign - it wasn't - The Guardian 19th January 2008

Sunday, January 20, 2008

The answerphone was bleeping as we opened the front door. After three months away, I could imagine the backlog of messages. We left it until the next day before trawling through them. Three, spaced over five weeks, were from the hospital in Suffolk where five years earlier I'd had an operation to remove a breast lump, which I was later told was benign. I left the hospital without further treatment, and though I remembered those anxious weeks when I didn't know what the outcome would be, I soon bounced back.

It is really agonizing to conduct breast self examination because a woman is always worried that she may find something. However, being worried and not doing anything about it is not the way to go. I would strongly encourage more women to conduct their monthly breast self examination as early detection can save breasts and lives.
