I'm in a similar situation. Im 40 I found a lump last week in my right breast about a week before my period went to doctors who checked both and found a 2cm round lump in my right breast. Did bloods which are clear and a 2ww referral to screening clinic. Got the appointment through for the 4th and I am absolutely terrified. It's the first one I've ever found and doctor wouldn't give me any info they didn't even tell me the size I had to find that put from the NHS app. I have moments like now where I'm ok then moments like last night where my thoughts run out of control and I can't help but think the worst. With our ages it could just be normal hormonal and breast changes. I can't tell you not to worry as I'd be a hypocrite but here if you need someone to worry with and go through the worry together.

Thank you so much for your reply, I had an hysterectomy 4 years ago it could be hormones. I really wish you the best of luck and I’m here for you too. What time’s your appointment on the 4th? Mine 14:10 on the 5th. I never knew it told you in the app I’ll have a look, I’ve literally cried today it feels like my right breast is on fire and it’s painful please please keep me informed 

Hi Jolamine 

thank you for responding 

I have a lump on my armpit , cant see it, just feel it with my fingers, Gp refereed me urgently

anyone here with armpit lump ? What it can be 

sorry if I sound stupid , just I am too scared , my sister had bc a year ago,she’s fine now , I didn't recover yet from the news about her , it was so bad , I couldn't take it , shes 43 only, Im 47 

I feel horrible 

Hi Grimes how did you get on? Here if you need to talk I know the adrenaline and worry can knock you. 

Hi Grimes,

If they can diagnose you on the day they will. In most cases, if a biopsy is needed, this can take 2-3 weeks for the results to come back. I hope that all went well for you this afternoon.

Kind regards,

Hi Grimes. I hope you are ok. Please reach out if you need to talk x

How did you get on at your appointment Bear3 ? 

Hello sorry meaning to reply.  I've got cysts they drained one so glad nothing serious but thank you for all your support.  My anxiety still bad now though think its been the stress getting very sweaty.  

Ah that's fabulous news! So chuffed for you. You're bound to still feel stressed as it's such an anxiety provoking experience. Just be kind to yourself and allow yourself to process it all

Definitely think its the stress from this experience thank u for your kindness 

Hi Lulebore,

You are not at all stupid. This is always a scary time. I am sorry to hear that your sister was diagnosed last year, but glad to hear that she is fine now. I had lost my mum to breast cancer before I was diagnosed, so understand your concerns. I have since had 2 bouts of BC myself, but that was 14 years ago now and I still lead a busy and fulfilling life. Many people here have had lumps under in their armpits. It is impossible to say what these are, until some tests have been carried out, so here's hoping that you'll be seen soon at the clinic.

Please keep in touch and let us know how you get on. We are always here for you.

Kind regards,

Jolamine xx

Update 

Hi everyone, after a torture waiting for 7 days , Today I went there to breast clinic ( urgent refer ) Good News, everything okay! I was refered after finding a lump on my left armpit, today , the Doctor did examination , and he felt some lump in the right breast, I was petrified , Dr ordered Mammogram snd ultrasound for the left armpit lump, and right breast I mention above, everything was okay  both me snd my husband were so so scared, my husband seamed positive at home but in there he was so lost, I felt so bad , I felt bad for him , I will never forget how I felt and the look on my husband face 

but just wanted to let anyone here know that I was almost dead and everything turned out to be perfect , so please try to not think like me , try to stay positive a little bit , my lump on armpit was painless( which I was scared) my right breast feels a bit of pain to the touch because I do have dense breasts ( thats why i guess). 
thanks to Jolamine and Laura xx

All the to everyone!

Hi Lulebore,

Thank you for the update. This is just the news that I was hoping for. It's amazing how we all expect the worst, but fortunately, 80% of people get a clean bill of health. I'm so glad to hear that all that worry was for nothing!

Kind regards,
