Try not to worry most lumps are nothing to worry about and you just can't predict what you may or not have, but I did do the same as you and try look for an answer,  both mine felt different one felt rubbery and smooth the other hard and irregular. 

You haven't got long to wait for your appointment now and you will be in such good hands they will give you lots of advice and keep you right. 

We all get that bad gut feeling but just try and enjoy your weekend Lx 
 

Hey [@Louisesjc13]‍ 

thanks so much for the response.  And I know I keep trying to tell myself to not worry but that's not happening.  I haven't slept properly and can't eat.  My lump has all the "classical" characteristics of BC.  And I just have a gut feeling it is going to be bad news.

thanks for describing... were yours mobile or immobile? 

mine is large (like a grape) one side smooth other side jagged (have had a more thorough feel and def attached to breast tissue or something). It's also very hard, like a rock!  I can't believe I never noticed it before as it's not deep at all.  So yes, that's why I am sick with worry as it's the most ominous feeling lump :( 

thanks for your time and have a good weekend x

Hello, I could only feel my first one as the second one was at my chest wall and only found from imaging. The one I felt was smallish (grape size), hardish, and immobile. However, please remember this - my GP who is excellent said that she never thinks about what a breast lump could be as sometimes she has thought the feel of a lump a was definitely typical of cancer and it turned out benign - sometimes the reverse happens, too. So, the reality is that you will not know until you go through the assessment process at the breast clinic. I know the wait is horrible but many lumps do turn out benign (and there can be several types of benign lumps). One word of caution: phyllodes can present as being benign in one part (it can even present as a benign fibroadenoma in one part) and yet another part of the lump can be borderline or malignant phyllodes. So if you get a core biopsy and the results say it is benign and your surgeon won't remove it, you still need to keep checking for any change in growth as it could be the core biopsy sampled the 'good' part, as it were. I wish you lots of luck on Monday. Regardless what happens, there is heaps of support for you. If you feel able or want to, I'd love to know how you get on. I'll be with you in spirit, holding your hand!!!

Hey [@opus]‍ 

Thanks for describing yours!  My GP didnt say much and looked quite concerned :(

But you are right, you don't know until you go for the scans/biopsies.  I have already diagnosed myself but I think that's because I don't want to be blind sighted and shocked when it's bad news. 

thanks so much for your well wishes, it's making me cry, emotional wreck ha!  Will update you on Monday (if I'm not too hysterical)x

Mine you could move a little but still felt attached and sometimes the left one could be hard to find.

good luck tomorrow 

keep us all posted
