Mate..you know already how i feel about all that.

Make sure you go back and demand a referral to the hozzie if the lump is still there.

Your gp needs a visit from me so i can put my foot up her behind!

Take your pills..keep an eye on it...dont fiddle with it!  Then go back and get it checked again.  She was talking twaddle to you birdy

Aww babe can you not get a second opinion or change doc's?

Its disgusting that she is not willing to put your mind at rest. At the end of the day a lump is a lump and it can be anything. See if it goes down with anti's if there is no sign then go back and demand to be seen properly. Otherwise i will be over there and coming with you!!!

I really think you need to get yourself back to the gp you left unhappy and that is not good i remember you telling me only the other week that i should fone the gp and talk to them or go back as i felt unhappy with what i was told , i hope you get to speak to someone different next time .

Good luck hope its nothing x

Ive calmed down now, and took myself off shopping, £60 later I feel a little better. Dr's aren't stupid, and although they can be wrong I think they would take something that could be serious a little more serious themselves. Im seeing my gynae at the start of October, so I will discuss everything with her but in the mean time I will just plod along with the antibiotics. If it gets worse, I feel worse or it changes in any way of course I'll go straight back. I also think Im about to have another one of those 'pain attacks' if so then Im likely to have a body full of raging hormones right about now lol I have some lower crampy pains, and just earlier I have some discomfort and weird need to pee like feelings. The last few times the pains have come out of the blue, so we'll see this could be just my usual type monthly thing (although to my diary its not due now). If I have hormones Im not going to be feeling all me, maybe thats why i got so upset earlier and panic'd. Ive had a hot bath and now away for a cuddle with my hot water bottle on the sofa, he's hoping to a pain free weekend and now lump free to. I must remember to do what Steph said and stop touching it, now I know its there I keep feeling its presence and touching it.

Hugs to you all, you all keep me sane I'd be lost without you guys! Thanks Steph for my kick up the rear earlier xxxxxxxxxxxx

Sometimes I think doctors forget their patients are scared and don't take the time to listen. I know they are really busy but you have a lot of different symptoms that need to be addressed.

I hope that you get further with your gynae appointment in October maybe worth ringing to see if there is any cancellations to be seen sooner?

Fingers crossed the antibio's clear your lump up.

Take Care xx
