Hi all, I'm 49 and found a lump in my right breast just over a month ago, thought I was being paranoid, as I've had a few friends who have had BC, so regularly check my breasts. Felt it again around two weeks ago, saw GP, confirmed I have a lump around 2cm in size and have a hospital appt on 2nd Dec. I've got a burning & stinging pain in my breast and nipple & probably like everyone else, I'm terrified, feel sick most of the time & I need to stop googling & try to be more positive. Can't tell any of my friends as I can't say it out loud (it's not happening if I don't speak the words). I'm peri menopausal and started HRT 6 months ago, so every ache & pain I've been blaming on that!
