Need help and info please

Hi I found a small pea sized lump in my breast in May I went straight to my gp who felt the lump but didn’t check my breast she said to book in a month to see how it changes. 

Within two weeks the lump grew slightly bigger and became a dull ache pain in my breast. 

I rang back and got an appointment she checked the lump and said she was going to refer me to the hospital for a scan , she told me there was a glitch with the computer system and she would need to book appointment as soon as computer back up and running . I’d been waiting over two weeks still not had hospital letter so I rang my gp back we’re they did not know anything about the appointment there was nothing on my notes .... I explained and they told me they were leaving a note on the system to speak to my doctor and they would call me back that day (this was last week) still heard nothing I rang back today to be told they still havnt heard contact from my doctor to ask about the appointment and they would leave another note for her and wouldn’t know when I’d be contacted ?! I’m a childminder so can’t always go to app or ring them . We’re so I go from here leave it ? As it’s a very dull ache in my breast ? Thankyou 

  • I had a small lump in my breat a few years ago it wasn’t painful I was sent for a mammogram. It turned out to be a blocked milk duct.  My advice would be go it could be something or nothing but its best to get it checked out.  I know it may be difficult work wise but if you explain to the parents I’m sure they will understand xx
