Hi everyone.
I recently discovered a lump in my armpit which is slowly growing.
I have a mammogram on the 29th. Really nervous as this will be my first.

Hello Kanga0113
I'm sorry to hear that you've recently found a lump. It's good to know that you have an appointment arranged for the end of this week. Hopefully, the team will be able to give you some reassurance on the day.
It might help to know that the majority of people who attend a breast clinic are not diagnosed with cancer. There could be a number of other reasons for this lump so try to remain positive for now.
If you'd like to chat things through with one of our nurses you're most welcome to give them a call. I'm sure they'll offer any advice and support that they can. They're available Monday to Friday 9 am to 5 pm on 0808 800 4040.
Do let us know how you get on.
Best wishes,
Jenn
