Hi all.
Hope you are all well and keeping safe during these unprecedented times we've been having.
id like to ask for some advice: it all starts with my right breast.
my right breast has been a topic of convo for about 4 months now, in February I had bloody nipple discharge the doctor put it down to an infection and it cleared up, however I still had clear fluid coming from it every now and then.
I have been very conscious of my breast since, and for months I have had what I can only describe as pins and needles / tingles in it. I've never been able to localise it (until now). The pain / irritation is always there, I called my GP she said to keep an eye on it.
so during Covid I have kept an eye on it and every other day commented on how strange my breast feels. It also feels like the skin is puckered, but when I look at it it isn't. I can only describe it as I feel like my breast is collapsing inside.
This has went on for months - finally I was in bed the other day and felt a hard lump in my breast. I got scared and then I couldn't feel it again. I told my mum the next day who felt it and she confirmed. So I got an appointment at the GP and got examined. If I'm honest I was expecting him to say he couldn't find anything so I was shocked when he found it straight away. I now have an appointment with the breast clinic next Monday and I'm so anxious.
Im just curious to any ladies that have had breast cancer, did yous feel / experience these symptoms too?
I'm 27, healthy, but have a family history of breast cancer, all cases of breast cancer in my family are age 25-44 very young.
im preparing for the worst, as I just know in my heart that something isnt right.
thanks in advance
stay safe xxx
