Lump in left breast

Hi everyone.

i am 9 weeks pregnant and have found a very hard small lump 

just above my areola on my left breast. It doesn’t hurt at all and doesn’t move when I touch it. When I say small I mean a little bit smaller than a tic tac!!

i am absolutely petrified- doctor has referred me to hospital for ultrasound. Next Monday I suffer with health anxiety and having to wait a week is going to really stress me out!  

I am so acared

  • Hi Marie, 

    I’m 26 and also have found a lump in my left breast. I have my appointment at the breast clinic tomorrow too at 3.40. 

    I rang up and asked what it entailed and apparently it’s a thorough breast examination followed by an ultrasound (because of our young age) 

    the ultrasound will show wether it’s a fluid filled lump or solid. If it’s fluid filled it’s a cyst. If it’s solid it can be a fibroadenoma (benign) or possibly what we all fear most. If the ultrasound shows a solid lump they then go on to do a biopsy which is usually the same day. Then you would have to wait for your results from that. Hopefully we will both know by the end of the day tomorrow what we are dealing with.
