Hi. I am extremely worried having noticed my areola turning white I. The shower in December. I then noticed my nipple was flattening and I'm sure when lifted around my nipple was a bit orange peel. Couldn't see a doctor because of covid so sent to a nurse. She said come back in 2 weeks but can't book a doctor so come to me and I will get a GP in if necessary. Then I noticed a lump under my arm. Big, oval, doesn't move or hurt. Obs I was worried as it's a node. Rang gp straight away and got to see a doctor. Was referred and went to clinic on 4th January. Was supposed to be a one stop clinic but they didn't have anyone to do a mammogram! I saw a consultant who noted my node. I now have to wait until 27th January. I know it's bad and I'm convinced that it will now be in my nodes spreading everywhere. In the summer when stretching a noticed my rib that side was tender and still is. My shoulder hurts to.  I cry every day. Having to hold down a full time job. Hardly sleeping. Please can someone talk to me. I'm in pieces.
