Hi all,
I am 31 and I give birth to twins 4 weeks ago this coming Friday. I'm not breastfeeding and found a lump in my left breast on the lower quadrant. It's immobile, not painful and feels like a pea.
I have been referred by my doctor to the breast clinic which I am still awaiting an appointment, but obviously my mind is going into over drive.
I hope to god it's just a cyst, but from looking online (I know, silly me) it is suggesting that immobile, Painless, hard lumps are common signs of cancer where as a cyst is mobile. I know it's not a blocked milk duct.
I have a history of breast cancer in my family (luckily we don't have BRCA gene). I have been to the breast clinic several times before, but this time it's a proper pea like lump.
Has anyone experienced this or know of anyone who has? I'm a young mother to 3 young children and I'm worried. I was checked at the breast clinic on 30/01 this year, so if it is anything hopefully caught early, but with all the hormones that have been surging through my body for the last 9 months it worries me it could have developed into something.
Thank you :)
