I am currently awaiting an appointment for a one-stop Breast Clinic, I received a letter through saying the appointment is for the 'Breast Surgery Clinic' which worries me when I have not been diagnosed yet. I found a lump in the upper quadrant of my left breast a couple of months ago. I check myself regularly due to my family history. My Mammogram was clear last year however I also have noticed a swollen lymph node above my collarbone which the GP has also confirmed.
I have experienced a dull burning pain in my left breast near the nipple (inner quadrant) for a few months which I have put down to hormones (early 40s) and my latest blood tests show my lymphocytes level is low. Has anyone received a low lymphocyte count just before being diagnosed with Breast Cancer or just after diagnosis? I am really worried waiting for my appointment.
