Urgent referral to the breast clinic

Hey, 

So I guess I just needed to write down my feelings & hope it makes me feel a little better! I'm 29 if this helps give a clearer picture.

I'm fully aware that the odds of anything sinister being found is slim which is great news and I'm hopeful on that basis.

About two weeks ago I noticed a patch of skin on the lower left side of my breast which is a darker shade of brown/purple with slight swelling underneath. I decided to go to see my GP on Monday 17th November just to get it checked as it hadn't gone & she examined me to then say she was sending an urgent referral to the clinic on a 2ww pathway as she didn't like the feel of it. 

I have since read my doctors notes and they say the below:

'left breast outer lower quadrant, 1.5cm skin swelling, hyperpigmented, attached to the underlying swelling & aysmmetrical nodularity'

I'm aware we are not medically trained to comment on this, but as I say I'm just hoping putting my feelings down somewhere will help me to relax.

I have my appointment through for Wednesday 26th November so luckily not a long wait, just trying to keep busy so I don't worry about anything but it's difficult!

Best,

Hayley
