Scared

So today I was referred for the 2 week breast clinic.

I haven't found a lump but have had severe pains and some nipple discharge over the last few weeks. 

On examining today my GP noted the boob issue as inflamed and discomforting on examination on my left boob, an inverted nipple and some leaking. 

Has anyone else had similar and if so what outcomes; if I prepare for worst case anything else is a bonus! 

  • Hello Tfss12 and welcome to the forum.

    I'm sorry to hear about the symptoms you have been contending with and that you've now been referred to the breast clinic.

    I know this must be very scary but our community is full of members who have been in your position, so you are not alone, and hopefully you will receive some support and advice from them soon.

    I'm not sure from your post if you have had a breast clinic appointment before, but if not, the cancer charity Breast Cancer Now have some very useful information about what may happen at your appointment.

    You're very welcome to give our nurses a call as well. They're available on 0808 800 4040, Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m and they will do all they can to answer any questions you may have and put your mind at ease.

    We're thinking of you Tfss12 and wishing you all the best with your referral.

    Kind regards,

    Steph, Cancer Chat Moderator
