Lump in right breast age 25

Hi, I'm Sophie, I'm 25.

I may be jumping ahead of myself by posting on this page at the moment! 

But a few months ago I could feel a hard, fairly large(or feels large to me) lump at the top of my right breast, but I'd convinced my self that it goes and comes back so had not worried about it, 

This last week my breast had felt quite tender so went to the GP this morning

I didn't think it moved but my GP this morning said it did. 

She also said her words "9 out of of 10 aren't cancer and I really don't think it is but because it's been a few months and it's still there it's best to get a ultrasound to check as I can't tell from feeling" 

So I have an appointment in 6 days that says 2ww breast clinic

I can't help but worry that she wasn't that honest with me, by saying she really doesn't think it is C would a doctor say that to keep me calm until the appointment? Or do they generally speak the truth when it comes to this? 

I don't know what I expect from posting on here, just guess I don't know where else to express me feelings of being worried and scared, 

Thankyou and best wishes to everyone on here ️

 

  • Oh darling 

    please don't be scared it's natural to be frightened ime super old in comparison to you but any lump or bump needs to be looked at I've had a biopsy on mine yesterday the doc said they think it's a fibro something or another and the consultant said the same that they are pretty sure that's exactly what it is I think the same as you that they've said it up stop me worrying I am sure they can't say that if they don't think it they would get in trouble try not to panic keep busy ime always here if you want to chat you'll be fine your in good hands it's the waiting that gets to you good luck sending you hugs xxxxx

  • Thankyou so much! ️

    I took my 18 month old with me too thinking it would be a cyst and sent on my way, all I could think about is her

    Fingers crossed for you! Best wishes, 

    She did mention that fibro thingy to me too or something along those lines. 

    Hope all goes OK for you xxxxx

  • Hi lovely

  • Thankyou so much ️ I am OK. I work in a nursery so they have kept my mind off things today! Lol

    How are you? 

    So nice of you to of thought about me

    One day down! I'm sure they won't cancel Monday either as it's an urgent appointment xx

  • Hi lovely

    ime Sure that they won't too don't worry about this bloody virus it won't stop the nhs looking into important stuff  I saw my neighbour she's young like you and she said she had a lump but she's got implants and they sent her to the breast clinic too and after an ultrasound she was told it was fatty tissue it made me think of you and I thought I would share her story to you hope it helps a bit  ime here if you have a wobble 

  • Thankyou, my manager told me today her daughter found 2, she is the same age as me and hers turned out to be cysts, I'm hoping it is something like that! But I can't help but think the worse at this moment in time. 

    I have alot of support, my partner is having Monday off to come with me, my mum will be around to look after my little one whilst we go and it's really helped chatting to you on here, someone that knows my feelings, you've been so kind ️

  • Hi darling 

    Ime glad you have lots of support it feels like such a lonely time your head just keeps going round and round it seems to jump in and make you anxious all over again just when you thought you had it under control I wobble a lot ime ok then. I panic I can't remember what they said to me I have to remind myself I can't change anything but the wait is horrible and with everything else going on it's hard not to feel even more anxious than you might have done you can't kerp your head busy if you can't work it go out I think we will all have very tidy cupboards after this virus is over I've bought some wool I think I'll teach myself to knit like a proper old lady I wish you all the best keep busy if you can don't google stay positive keep in touch sending hugs xxxx
