A few months ago I was having a little check of my breasts, I'd never really done this anywhere near as often as you should. My boobs are very small and I never really knew what I should be feeling for but hadn't noticed anything that alarmed me, until around May this year. The only way I can describe what it feels like is as though I can feel the edge of a breast implant, even though I don't have any, in my left breast. I am a very anxious person, especially when it comes to anything health related so I only finally plucked up the courage to book in with a GP today.
I went to my appointment and described what I've said above, she felt my right breast and said everything felt normal, then moved onto my left and said I was right, there was something there but she wasn't sure what it was. She concluded that she thinks it's just my breast tissue but has referred me to the specialist to check, so I am waiting for the appointment to come through now.
I was just wondering if anyone has had something similar to this, as I have had a look online (I know, not always the best idea!) but cannot find anyone that has described how their lump felt, like mine. I just keep seeing them being described as small, soft/hard. Whereas mine feels like I've got a large water balloon inside my boob
Any similar experiences or stories would be very welcome to try and calm me down a bit! Thank you!
