I am looking advice from anyone that can offer it really. For around 3 months I have had a pain in my left breast, it started out as a heavy feeling that I put down to hormones but has since become very tender. Today I called my gp just to check if it was anything to be concerned about and after an examination she said that my left breast is very glandular and tender to the left side and behind the nipple.. has anyone been told this before im confused as to what it means? She referred me to the breast clinic but said because there isn't a definitive lump and due to my age (25) it will take months.
