andrea, i assure you whatever this is, whether it's worst case scenario or something really easy to treat, you will be absolutely fine. i know this is easier said than done but try to remain glass-half-full about this until you get a definitive answer. take someone with you to your appointments, don't keep it all in the dark for anyone else's sake. you need and deserve to have support through all of this!

my mum went through a similar scare and she didn't tell anyone. i wish she had. as terrifying as it would have been, i wish i could've supported her through it all. 

i'm currently 18 years old and waiting to hear back from the breast clinic. i'm scared too! i also thought i found a lump in my left breast, GP said she couldn't feel anything but referred me anyway because of the extreme health anxiety i have. i literally wasn't eating, sleeping, or even leaving my bed because i was just sobbing constantly thinking my life was over. the women on this website have made me realise that is the furthest thing from the truth. regardless of my diagnosis (and yours), it is NOT a death sentence. we could still live happy and full lives. medical treatments are incredible now, so i'm sure everything will be okay.
