Large, hard, very movable lump in right breast

Found a large (but very moveable) rounded lump in my right breast this morning. Managed to get a GP appointment at 2:20, she wasn’t too concerned but did refer me - I’ve not long finished my period and I noticed with this cycle my boobs doubled in size ( a lot more than usual) and were also very heavy. Could this have anything to do with it? I’m absolutely terrified, it feels like a small golf ball or a large grape floating around, extremely hard but rounded. No other symptoms.

    I’m sorry to hear that you’ve found a lump in your breast. I can completely understand how unsettling and scary that must feel. It’s good that you’ve already seen your GP and that they’ve referred you for further checks. that’s the best way to get some clarity.
