Small mobile lump found

Hi everyone. I’ve had tingling and burning sensations in my left armpit for a few weeks now and in my hand. However on checking my breasts I thought I could feel a small lump in the upper quadrant so have been to the GP today who confirmed she can feel a small 2cm lump, but that it is smooth and mobile. She thinks it is likely a cyst or fibroadenoma but that obviously doesn’t stop the worry for the next 2 weeks whilst waiting for my appt at the clinic. Has anyone had anything similar before? X

  • Hi AEx,

    Welcome to Cancer Chat. It's good to hear you've seen your GP about this and that you have the referral in place. I know the waiting and uncertainty is never easy so I hope you're getting on OK.

    I can see you've been speaking to others on the forum, which hopefully has been helpful. My reply here will also give your post a little boost so a few more people should see it.

    If you'd like some information ahead of your appointment, then you may find this page about what to expect at the breast clinic useful.

    Wishing you all the best,
