I am glad I hit on a great breast clinic then, my bells were not ringing at all. In fact I fully believed I didn't have cancer!! After going to local GP and given referral for a fine needle biopsy, I rang around to get apt for pathology. 3 weeks was the earliest one. Then I just happened to read on the net about the The Mount breast clinic (Perth) - got an apt in 1 week (Thurs) with a breast doc, she knew straight away, core biopsy on lump, fine on nodes all same day, official diagnosis next Monday, Bone, CT scans Tuesday, Surgeon Wednesday, operated following Wednesday, oncologist 2 weeks later, port in, then chemo 4 days later ..... .... I didn't realise until a couple of months later that not only was cancer in nodes but also in bloodstream. So much for not having cancer... I don't need inner bells, I need an outer sledgehammer...
