Lumpy breast, been referred, appointment next week. Worried

I've recently found some small lumps in my right breast, feels like lots of small ones, the breast is tender, it feels heavier and harder. Hard to explain, but I'm so worried. Convinced this is the worst. 
I've been referred and my appointment is in a week, I don't know how I'm going to make it until then :( 

  • I'm sorry for the worry this is causing Bridget but I hope it helps to know that so many of our members will understand how you're feeling at the moment, so you are not alone and hopefully you will receive some support and advice from them soon.

    Waiting for appointments is always tough but keeping busy and distracted may help time pass more quickly whilst you wait. 

    I hope this information I've found on what to expect at a breast clinic appointment will be useful as well.

    We're thinking of you Bridget and wishing you all the best for next week.

    Kind regards,
