So frightened

Hi I’m new to this site, about a year ago I started with terrible upper back pain mainly in the right side and shoulder, doctors have continually put it down to a muscular strain however it doesn’t feel anything like that it’s a dull ache that doesn’t go away even when resting, 4 weeks ago I started with very tender breasts I thought this could be due to my time of month but still the pain is there, I’m now terrified the two could be linked. I’m due a mammogram in a week but so so scared x
