Breast and armpit lump

About a month ago , I have discovered lump in my breast , panicked and went straight to a&e , doc checked me , and said not to worry about it could be a normal cyst since you breastfeeding .amd he said because u seem stressed I will refer you for a scan , a month later I found new lump in armpit , went again to a&e they checked it. The doc said she is not worried because it’s moving , but she referred me straight way to breast hospital for investigation . The appointment is I. A week.  I am soooo worried and panicking , i have 3 daughters under 6 years old . Plz help me with your suggestions 

 much appreciated support 

  • Hi Amina111,

    Welcome to Cancer Chat. Firstly it is good to hear you are getting it checked out - the results will give you some certainty one way or the other; the waiting for information is always difficult.

    It's natural to worry but prior to your appointment try to take your mind off it by keeping yourself busy. I hope it's not too much longer to wait.

    I know there are many others on this forum who have been through the same as you so hopefully they'll be along soon to offer some words of comfort.

    Do let us know how you get on, if you would like to of course.

    Wishing you all the best,

    Ben
