Medicare runs out

All the best. I hope it turns out to be nothing to worry about, but you are right to push to get it checked out. :)

i had one at the beginning of the year as part of the breast cancer care ( one a year for 5 years ) evidenlty medicare only funds one a year. 
i saw another GP this morning he said he will send a referral through to the surgical dept based on my current issues 

Your GP should be able to order a breast ultrasound(free?) and that might shed light on the new lump.

@tisme good idea! Tell your gp you’re not comfortable to just monitor it. If it’s something, the last thing you wanna do is wait 

i see another gp tomorrow see what happens going to do as the breast cancer nurse suggested that i ask the doc to send me to the surgeon ( that did the first biopsy 2 years ago ) for an opinion etc

Sounds nuts to me too :/

i had a scan and when i saw the gp for the results he said keep an eye on it .  had a telechat with the oncologist and he said it needed a biopsy, and to send him a copy of the scans when he got them he said it was ok , and just to keep an eye on it if it grows let him know , I think thats nuts 

If you have a new lump, surely your GP has referred you to your surgeon and oncologist, who will order further tests ASAP!!!!

gp wants to wait and see, that doesnt make sense , in Feb the mamogram was clear , in May there is a hard lump., the radiology report says its caclifiied but they cant see whats underneath.  no one wants to do anything.   breast care nurse suggests I see my gp and request a revisit to the surgeon. initially the onco said i needed a biopsy etc now he says wait and see  .  a sudden hard lump in the same area as the last breast cancer isnt wait and see as far as I am concerned . I cant see my gp for 9 days nor anyone else ( which I wouldnt thrill to that idea having to explain it all ). so will see if my usual gp will send me to the surgeon for an opinion etc.   In the mean time I am battling to come off anti depressants  the meds the pysch prescribed  to replace the others with arent recommended for those with breast cancer  so as you might imagine the depression is bad . and autistic daughter is picking up on it.  ( coming down off these anti depressants is evil , thought I developed high blood pressure , the last anti dep put me in hospital god what next

yup Clover I get 1000.00 per fortnight as a carer less 700 .00 rent  less bills less .......................
