Breast Lump Pain - Triple Negative Breast Cancer

Hi all

My mum was diagnosed with Triple negative breast cancer last month. Shes was experiencing slight twinges in the lump area but now it's daily and much more painful.

She's got her first round of chemo next week but I wanted to know if lump pain was normal?

Thank you

  • Hi there Sarah 

    So sorry your mum's going through this at the moment ... this is the scariest part , the waiting .. and yes it can be normal to get pain from the lump... I think it's when we keep feeling it, as we tend to do that at first, and can make it sore ... though every lump is different ... some painless.. some sore ...

    But she can mention it at her next appointment,  to put her mind at rest ... and there's lots of us breast lasses on here... all with boxing gloves on... so tell your mum she's not alone, there's lots of us in this boxing ring ... and wer all punching right back at it .. 

    Let's kick cancers *** together ... Chrissie x

     

  • Thanks Chrissie, I guess not knowing what will happen gets us worried about the smallest things with this. I hope your journey is going well and will be successful, you sound very positive and it's encouraging.

    Thank you ️

  • Hi Sarah,

     

    My tumour is painful to touch and I get a shooting pain in it occasionally. This was worse after the core biopsy but settled down again.

     

    Good luck to your mum. 

  • Thank you Sam, she had 3 biopsies on 3 lumps and they had to clamp one. I'm glad to know it's not something to worry about to much. Good luck to you too!
