Unsure if i have breast cancer

Around 15-16 weeks ago i found some swelling in my arm pit went to the doctors who prescribed me with antibiotics it never went with those. 
Then i found a lump on my right boob at the top on the side got in at the doctors who took a look and referred me to the breast clinic had an appointment through within 4 weeks.

Saw the consultant he then sent me for an ultrasound there and then and he said he wasnt too worried he said it was just glandular tissue but hed give me another appointment in 6 weeks time.

Since then my boob had doubled in size my nipples gone inwards , my boob was warm to touch and if you press under my boob at the bottom my skin goes inwards and then takes a few seconds to come back out. 
Been back to the doctors she prescribed me with antibiotics which doesnt seem to be working.

Hss anyone else had these sort of symptoms? 

  • Hello and thank you for your post,

    I am sorry to hear about your breast symptoms and I can appreciate your worry but this still does not mean you necessarily have cancer.

    Be reassured that you are going back to the breast clinic to get checked out. You are currently on antibiotics and you may need to give them a chance to work, if after finishing them you have not seen an improvement go back either to your GP or the breast clinic.

    I hope you will be okay. Please get back to us if you need any more information or support.  You may find it helpful to talk things through with one of the nurses on our helpline.  The number to call is Freephone 0808 800 4040 and the lines are open from 9am till 5pm Monday to Friday.

    Take care,

    Caroline
