Hi I have noticed for last few weeks a change in shape at the bottome of my left brest it has dimple id say a inch long when i lift my arm however i do have implants and i assumed it could be that so didnt worry to much however the more i noticed the more I thought about getting checked and booked a GP appointment I went and she immedietly said she could feel a lump and has refferd me for the 14 day cancer track. I am 33 and feeling worried as I had not realised myself there was a lump. Can anyone also advise on the next stages. I only saw the GP yesterday. Thank you.

    Hi there..you should either get an appointment to see a consultant or more likely to go for a mammogram. If this is fine you can be reassured. If there  are some worrying features on the scan they might do an ultrasound or and biopsy to check the tissue. Either way it will most likely be one week wait to get any results but the ultrasound which gets reported immediately ( if you had to have this).All investigations are painfree by the way. Good luck and bst wishes

    Thank you so much ladies it’s so hard to stay off google which only adds to worry. I’m just waiting for the referral which they said would be within the 14 days But all of the responses have been a very helpful. Can I ask did anyone diagnosed have pain? X

    I had no symptoms but have been told by breast cancer professionals that pain is not a symptom of breast cancer. Hope that helps. X
