A week or so ago the side of my boob was sore when taking off my bra like an ache. It soon went away however something made me check my breasts (havent done before now) and I felt a small hard lump in the middle of my breast towards the bottom below my nipple. It seems solid and stuck. Anyway my entire boobs feel lumpy so I was unsure if it was actually a lump I was feeling so today I went to the GP and she found it straight away so is sending me a two week referal to the breast cancer clinic. She said its not cancer (how does she know) and that not to panic when they ring as thats where everybody goes to get their breasts checked.

I feel ill with worry. How common is it for a 24 year old? I pray it is nothing but it although small it does feel like a hard lump.

Thanks
