Hello Jessiebessie and a warm welcome to Cancer Chat, 

You've done the right thing in going to the GP this week and it's reassuring news that there are no lumps in your breast. It's great they are being very thorough and that you will be examined by the breast clinic very soon. It's normal to feel anxious but try and bear in mind that the majority of people who are referred to the breast clinic will not have cancer but it's important to get any lump or swelling properly investigated. 

There is information on this page on what to expect at a breast clinic appointment which I hope you will find useful. 

I hope that you will hear from others here who have had something similar and that they will be along shortly to share their story with you. 

Best wishes, 

Lucie, Cancer Chat Moderator

Hi Jessiebessie

i am having similar issues and waiting for my breast clinic referral. How did you get on? 

I have similar issue. Have a referral app on 10th January. 

I can feel it at times and seems to be irritated by my bra. 

More pronounced then the other side. 

Hi Natalie , how are you coping mentallly? I feel like my thoughts are constantly consumed with this swelling and find myself constantly touching it. I also have quite a large lump in my armpit fat, feels quite deep into the tissue. Can't help but think the worst. 
Glad you have the date for you appt

I constantly touch the area and then start prodding and thinking I can feel lumps. I then start googling which is the worst thing ever as all it does it tell me I'm dying.

I have lumpy boobs anyway which does not help things. 

The waiting is the worst.
