Hi Eagle 87 welcome to the cancer chat forum. I'm sorry you have found a lump in yoir breast ,it is worrying when you find any lumps , but it doesn't always turn out to be cancer. 

Mine  did,but my lump was very  hard ,solid in fact and didn't move at all. Most cancerous lumps in breasts are like this. But I also found another lump, a tear after in same breast, after I'd undergone lumpectomy and all my lympth nodes were removed from under my right arm as it had spread there. But this lump didn't feel the same ,it wasn't as hard and it moved,it turned out to be a cyst. I was told many woman are walking around with cysts in thier breasts, who probably don't even know it. It showed up on an ultrasound, I was told it was very small,and they don't operate or treat them  they  just leave them.  

So your's  could be a cyst ,also hormone related problems can cause your breast tissue to feel lumpy and tender.  Most breasts  are normaly lumpy too. My advice you is stop googling,as you can make yourself a nervous wreck . Just go to your gp,and they will probably send you for a 2w refferal  to the breast clinic, if they do,don't worry as I said it may not be anything to worry about. And secondly if it is  look at it positively  as I did,after I got over the shock ,after all finding it early saved my life ,and that in itself had to be a good thing.  Good luck with evetything, hope all goes well. Do let us know how it all goes.

Hello, thank you for your reply, I really appreciate it, just any interaction is comforting, just knowing people experience the same thing all over the world is reassuring. Just hoping for a quick check up and an answer more then anything. Not knowing is the hard part. 
im sorry you had to go through cancer. I hope you're well now. And thank you for your reply once more

it's best to get it checked you are doing the right thing but hopefully you got nothing to worry about good luck ️

I found a lump yesterday. I've been crying about it ever since. I've got GP appointment this afternoon. 

Mine is hard and pea sized and doesn't seem to move, apparently those are not good signs. 

I feel sick with worry, trying to appear normal this morning in front of the kids 11 and 13.

I am a mess. 

I'm so sorry, I hope your GP appointment was reassuring or at least they will refer you to a hospital for a scan soon. I've got my referral appointment this afternoon after seeing my GP this morning, it's a weeks wait which feels like eternity as I'm the same like you am I nerves wreck, I can't work, all I keep thinking is about chemo and operations etc... let's keep strong x
