I Am Worried About My Health

Im getting old. I hate it.
Ive had no end of niggles this last 6 months. But right now...im worried. I have a pain in my right breast. I tried to get a doctors appointment a couple of days ago, but i could only see a nurse. She has refered me to the hospital.....so...its a waiting game now until my appointment comes through......it hope it turns out to be something and nothing......

You are not old , the body changes through your 50s and many niggles are not serious...worrying makes things worse, I hope they sort out the pain in your chest....

My wife has had a couple of those scares. Both turned out to be nothing - just random pain (possibly linked to menopause apparently).
Fingers crossed same for you.
As for getting older, well, it doesn't come alone, as they say.
Wishing you better health for the foreseeable 👍😊

@RubySoo you're allowed to do that. It is a worry but I reckon you'll be okay. I'll pray in my heathen way for you 😉🙄😊😇

@Classified thank you. X

You've done the right thing. Hope all goes well x

@RubySoo I think you're right. My GP has dragged her heels on my condition for 6 months....'painkillers will do' attitude. Once hospital referral went through, they've done their best.
Just be a polite nuisance and be persistent x
RubySoo · 56-60, F
@Moonpenny yes...i will. Thanks x

Really sucks that you have to wait on this. I hope it's nothing very serious.
RubySoo · 56-60, F
@Rutterman i hope so too.
I cant deny im a tad worried x
Rutterman · 46-50, M
@RubySoo That's totally understandable.

Have you had a mammogram?
RubySoo · 56-60, F
@samueltyler2 not lately. Im still awaiting my appointment to see someone.
samueltyler2 · 80-89, M
@RubySoo is there swelling, heat, pain? There could be an infection. I don't know where you are but you need to be seen asap.

@samueltyler2
No swelling. Pain (as explained)

i posted this before christmas. I went to my GP. I am awaiting a further appointment. Thats how it works here. My appointment is next month. X

Hi. Where are you now in this situation?
RubySoo · 56-60, F
@daydeeo hi. Thanks for asking. I have an appointment at the hospital the beginning of Feb. To ve honest, im not so worried now as i was before. The pain comes and goes and is not confinded to one spot. I think if it were 'something serious' the pain would probably be more consistant in the one place.

@SW-User 2 years ago. Ive been refered to the 'breast clinic'. I had a letter through yesterday....saying they would write to me again about 8 weeks before an appointment become available. ( might be dead by then!! Lol)
