Hi

I’ve come on here as was referred to the urgent breast cancer screening program today and it has shaken me up a bit.  There’s the part of me that says this is normal procedure and it’s being looked at but the other part of me is anxious.

I had a mammogram end March this year which was all clear but have had a pea sized hard immovable lump under my left armpit for a few weeks.  It has actually reduced in size a bit so I wasn’t unduly worried when I saw the doctor today.  Now that she’s referred me to the urgent screening I’m feeling concerned.

I think I just need a bit of reassurance that it’s unlikely to be breast cancer due to clear mammogram end March.  Or could it be lymphoma or leukaemia.  I’ve done too much googling - sorry.  Would welcome any advice.  Thanks
