Tender breasts

Hi all 

I'm a bit concerned for the last month I've had tender breasts no lumps no other obvious signs but both tender when squeezed by my other half.

I've also noticed weight loss I was

9 stone 6 a few months ago I weighed myself this morning and I'm down to 9 stone and I'm not even trying  to loose weight.

Is this something I should speak to my gp about?

I've had a hysterectomy last November and year before had stage qa1 cervical cancer 

Thank you all

    Hello Shells3boys, 

    I am sorry to hear about these symptoms you have had for the last month and the fact that you have lost weight without trying. I definitely think it would be worth giving your GP a call and for you to talk about these symptoms. As you had a hysterectomy and had stage 1 cervical cancer, it's also important to mention your medical history when flagging these issues with your doctor. 

    I hope that you manage to talk to someone about these issues soon. It's always best to talk to your doctor if there is anything that worries you as your doctor will be able to tell you what might be causing these symptoms. Try not to worry too much as there are so many things that could be causing these issues but it will be good to have it looked at properly so you can get peace of mind and understand what is going on. 

    Hopefully you will hear from other members of the forum who have experienced similar symptoms and they will be along shortly to share their expeirence with you.

    Best wishes,

    Hi shells 

     

    this maybe nothing at all wrong but I would deffo check it out , I had a tender breast no lump that I could feel at all but my left breast hurt when my dog pressed one day so I got it checked and sadly for me BC was confirmed I felt well no breast was different in appearance or anything x 

    Please do not thibk the worse it maybe ages times of month anything at all but deffo get a check so you can put your mind at ease .

    my lump was tiny I could not feel the day I had my op even with a line drawn on me but my consultant found it straight away xx
