Lump in breast

Hi

my Right boob feels heavy and a bit tender, I have also found a hard movable oval lump about the size of a grape, I am 5mths pp...I have been to the gp who struggled to find it as it's quite deep, he has referred me Hospital but now I'm so scared..anyone else had this? 
 

thanks 

  • I just don't know what to do if she doesn't refer me which is making me more anxious than if I have anything sinister or not x

  • Hello and thank you for your post.

    I am sorry to hear that you are going to be seen at the breast clinic but remember that most people seen there will turn out not to have cancer. While I know this might not help you worry less do try and be reassured that you have been referred to get checked out. Breast Cancer Now have some good information about what to expect at the breast clinic when you get there, you might want to read it here.

    It is just a couple more days until you are seen so do try and keep your mind off this and if you can keep yourself busy with other things. 

    I hope the appointment goes well and that 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
