Breast lump

Hello , I found a lump the size of a £2 coin in the underside of my left breast, its not painful and the Dr said it moves slightly but feels attached, I've been referred and awaiting an appointment, I'm so stressed and don't know what to think. No history of breast cancer but ovarian cancer yes. 

  • Hi lor 

    welcone 

    soiry you are worried about a referral I had breast cancer july 22 now fully recovered as a fizzy pop bottle and here to help others along 

    I had no family history I had bad luck 

    just to let you no only 2 in 10 who go to the breast clinic get a diagnosis best to get it checked to settle your mind 

    I wish you well stay here for support and chats we are here for you good or bad news 

    much love Lara ️

  • Hello 

    My mammogram appointment is on the 14/03/23 , I'm so worried and can't help thinking the worst, the 2cm hard lump is on the left breast lower quadrant, it's slightly moves and like my Dr says feels attached, I have discomfort in my back and under my ribs on the left side,   I'm not sure if I'm imagining these symptoms though.

  • Hi Lor,

     

    Sorry to hear you're so worried. I recently had a 12-day wait for results from tests I had at a breast clinic. In those 12 days, I had every ache and pain under the sun and splitting headaches. I convinced myself they were sinister but now I know what I'm dealing with, they have all disappeared. Stress can cause all manner of niggling aches. I wish you all the best with your appointment. 

  • Hope all went ok at your appointment a couple of weeks back x

  • Hello , so yes had my appointment had mammogram and ultrasound, she was a little concerned at first and said the lump is round but also jagged and had white specs but it could be protein they drained it which hurt, and said no need to test as it's a cyst, so I was very much relieved, but this past week  unfortunately my left breast became very uncomfortable it was hard, slightly reddish and I can feel a lump still inside, rang 111 and out of hrs Dr examined me & said I had mastitis ( I'm 46 in menapause) and prescribed antibiotics and told to make a gp appointment next week.

    Since I noticed the original lump I've also been experiencing pain in the back of my ribs, my side  and pain in the upper chest (left side same as lump) , so I really don't know what's going on with me, but I'm feeling uncomfortable most days .

  • Hi Lorraine 

    I know you posted 5 months ago but wondered how you were? 

  • Hi Cath,

    I notice that you have posted on an old thread, so I'm not sure whether or not you'll get a reply. 

    Is there anything that we can help you with?

    Kind regards,
