Hi 

i currently have a hard lump in my armpit went to the doctors who checked me over and when she felt it had a look on her face that scared me a little, she was like this seems deep inside so not sure what she meant. I don't get pain under my armpit but told her that my right breast hurts when touched on the side or if i lay on it. I have been referred for a hospital appointment at the breast clinic which I had to wait over 5 weeks for the appointment to come through due to covid. I would definitely recommend asking to be referred. I was referred due to the history of breast cancer and cancer in my family. My appointment is on the 6th Jan so am really worried all I can think of at the moment. 

Hello. 
 

I have just been reading the full conversation and can understand all your worries as I'm feeling exactly the same it's horrid. I have also found a lump under my armpit, quite small, moves but spongy/marble feel to it. It's been there for around 3 weeks that I've noticed. Also got pain in the left side of the breast where the armpit is. I had a baby 6 weeks ago so not sure if it's hormonal. Got an appointment on Wednesday, doctor wasn't overly concerned but sent me under 2 week rule for my peace of mind. Absolute torture waiting for the appointment, my head is mashed, googling does not help and it's the worst thing for it. Everytime I start playing with it, I feel it gets bigger. It hasn't grown anyway. 
 

I hope you have had a successful outcome
 

Take care,

Katie
