Hello.
Hoping for some advice please. About two weeks ago I noticed a small hard lump in my breast. I waited nearly two weeks to see my GP as I was on my period at the time and didn't want to be fobbed off with hormones.
I explained to the GP I'd had pain under my armpit and down the side of my breast but not where the lump is which is on the other side. She did do a physical and decided it was a fibroadenoma and that was it really.
She could tell I wasn't very happy and told me to go back in two weeks.
After speaking to friends in the NHS they have advised going back and pushing for a referral as I'm obviously really concerned that this is only being diagnosed by a GP and with a physical.
I have made an appointment to go back earlier than the two weeks but I'm also concerned I'm being dramatic and waisting everyone's times.
Just looking for some thoughts please xx
