Stressed

Hi I'm still waiting on my referral to breast clinic after finding a lump last week, yesterday I had a burning feeling in my breast and I'm terrified now, I'm only 35 and already have anxiety due to losing my mum when she was 44 to breast cancer, am I just being paranoid, I'm making myself ill thinking about my kids

  • Hi. I've had the burning sensation you describe and was told last week that my lump was due to an infection. I only heard when my appointment would be just a few days before the actual appointment date. I hope you hear soon as I know the waiting is hard but, in the meantime, try to distract yourself as much as you can. Take care x
