Nipple discharge

Hi I'm wondering if anyone has some advice,

I was referred to the breast clinic after having some nipple discharge from my right breast and I had an ultrasound on Wednesday which looked fine and the dr had no concerns however tonight I have noticed the discharge has changed to blood. Should I be concerned if the ultrasound was clear?

Not sure whether to go back to the gp or not. I have a slight raise under my right armpit but the gp was never concerned about that, but it causes me some issues and is currently giving me a burning sensation. My mum had breast cancer at the age of 42 and her sister had it also so obviously I get concerned. Many thanks

    Hi Danielle,

    I am so sorry to hear about your syptoms. It sounds as if it might be advisable to tell your GP about this and ask for their advice. Mention the swelling under your arm again too.

    I know how worrying this time can be. My mum also had cancer and died 10 years before I was diagnosed. I had a recall after a routine mammogram and, was told that all was fine. A few years later I found a lump. I had a lumpectomy. The following year I discovered another cancer in the same breast and had a double mastectomy.

    I sincerely hope that this is something and nothing for you. Please let us know how you get on. We are always here for you.

    Kind regards,
