Breast referal mentions sinister lump!!

I'm still waiting for my breast appointment following a gp appointment. I've just requested a copy of my referal from the gp, that was a bad move!!

 

It says suspected cancer, gp felt two lumps, one being marked down as "sinister".

 

I'm so so scared. I can't think straight and don't know what to so

 

Referal below. 

 

I haven't told my family so have nobody go talk too.

Clinical Details (free text):

Dear Colleague,
This 35 year old lady presents with a lump in her right breast which is tender. She says she has a similar lump on the left side but this is not tender and she is still breast feeding.

On examination she has 1cm rubbery swelling bilaterally above the nipples and one in the medial quadrant of the right breast, however the swelling that she points out over the nipple on the right breast feels a llttle more sinister. There is nothing to find in her axillae.

  • I would say to please try not to be worried. This happened to me recently, after a CT scan I was referred to the breast clinic that they found nodules in my breast. I was worried to death but when I got there I was told that many people get referred in once they see a lump in their breast. Mine was benign and I am still awaiting biopsy result.

  • Hi Omolly,

    Avery warm welcome to our forum. I am delighted to hear that all turned out to be benign. I sincerely hope that your biopsy confirms this.

    Please keep in touch and let us know how you get on. We are always here for you.

    Kind regards,

    Jolamine xx
