Breast lump

6 months ago I noticed the skin under my breast had dimpled. I was referred to the breast clinic where I had an ultrasound and mammogram. There was no lump there at the time although a thickening if the skin was mentioned. I was assured all was fine and discharged. 
Yesterday whilst showering I felt a large, solid, smooth lump in the same area. I went to the Doctor today and was referred back to the breast clinic.

I am really not managing this very well and looking for any kind of similar stories? 

  • I'm sorry about the lump you've found Cbry. I know this must be difficult, especially as you were told there was nothing to worry about 6 months ago, but many of our members have been in a similar situation so will know what you're going through at the moment and will hopefully be along soon to offer their support and advice.

    I know we can't take the worry away but we're thinking of you and will be hoping your second visit to the breast clinic will be the last.

    Kind regards,
