A few weeks ago I found a small pea sized hard lump in my right breast. I have pretty lumpy breasts anyway and I was due on my period so thought I would wait a little while as I know breasts can change during the month, anyway it didn't go so I got a doctors appointment and got it checked. The doctor said that she thought the lump was just a cyst but was a little concerned about my left breast as she thought it felt more lumpy than the right. She's referred me to the breast clinic and they phoned me yesterday but I missed the call. Tried to ring back 2 minutes later but couldn't get through and obviously today is a Bank Holiday so I've had no phone call today (even longer wait ) Now at first when my doctor said she felt it was too lumpy I wasn't overly concerned as as I said they are normally pretty lumpy but I've been having an extra feel around and now I think I can feel a dent at the top of my left breast almost like a small chunk is missing?! I'm scared! I hate the waiting and not knowing and can't help overthinking! I've just turned 30 and have 2 young children who I'm petrified to leave behind. I have quite a history of breast cancer in the family. Paternal grandmother and my dad's sister diagnosed at 50 both survived but grandmother got it again 20 years later, it spread and she passed away last year and my dad's cousin passed away at 36 from it too. No real point to this post other than airing my thoughts/feelings.
