Breast pain and Nipple discharge

Hello

At the end of May my gp found a lump in my breast after complaining for weeks about breast pain, armpit pain and tender nipples. 

I got referred to the breast clinic on 29th June got checked over no lump found (no scans) and got the all clear.

I am now suffering crust on my nipples (more on one) in the morning when i wake up.

I phoned nhs 24 yesterday who sent me to the hospital to be checked over by a gp.

She found some fatty tissue in my under arm and that i may have a cyst or blocked duct at my nipple. She was shocked i never got an ultrasound and urges me to phone my gp tomorrow to be referred again and she will write to them.

Has anyone else had this? 

My mum had breast cancer last year so my anxiety is high.

  • I'm sorry to read what's happened Allison but I hope you managed to get through to your GP so this can be looked at once more.

    Hopefully some of our members who have been in a similar situation will get back to you soon but I just wanted you to know we're thinking of you and will have our fingers crossed everything will be o.k.

    Kind regards,
