  • Hi!! Literally just joined to reply to you as im currently going through very similar and am really struggling to deal with it! Like you i have a history of breast lumps, and in the past have been reffered to the breast clinic for tests to be told i have fibroadenomas. I am 27 by the way and also have two boys, just turned one and my eldest is five in feb! I noticed a burning/achey feeling in right armpit in around September 2018, and ignored it for a while as just thought it was an ingrown hair etc etc, but the pain never went away and here we are in january and noticed a couple of breast lumps, went to docs and have been reffered to breast clinic for appt on monday the 21st. I am so so worried about having breast cancer, i feel physically sick thinking about it and when i look at my sweet little boys all i want to do is cry as I don’t want to get ill and ever ever leave them!! So just wanted to say you’re not alone and i truly hope we are both ok, best of luck at your appointment sweet heart, im struggling to cope with the worry of it all so can really relate to you x 

  • Morning ladies and welcome to this forum! It is a worrying time there’s no getting away from that. But most lumps are nothing to worry about some are though,that’s why you get sent to breast clinic. Better to be safe! I found a lump and although I was 48 at the time so a few years older than you two!! I had a mammogram ultrasound scan and two core biopsies taken they found another lump. My results a week later came back inconclusive and it was decided to do a lumpectomy within four weeks. It was in fact done just over two weeks later! Then two week wait for results. The waiting not knowing is the worse thing going plus I had my birthday in that time and was a mess I cried at work thinking I would be here for my 50th everything went through my mind. Then result day came couldn’t eat crying again wanted to go but didn’t scared what was going to be said, but it was good news both lumps benign!! They had to say it twice! Did take a few weeks to get my head round it as it had been an emotional rollercoaster but I was one of the lucky ones! I now have to have yearly mammograms and my first one will be May! The ladies on here will help as much as we can although not doctors but have been through what you are in some form. Please keep in touch and let us know how you are getting on

    big hugs xx
