Hi Rainbell,

Welcome to our forum, although I'm sorry to hear why you've joined us.

I am glad to hear that you are seeing your GP today and I hope that he'll refer you t the breast clinic for further tests. Try to avoid consulting Dr Google at present. You will find that much of the information is out of date, poorly researched and aimed at the spectacular cases. This will terrify you further.

I developed a small lump in my right breast 10 years ago. It was in a similar position to yours and was hard and fixed. Sadly it did turn out to be cancer. I then had a lumpectomy followed by Tamoxifen. I discovered another lump in the same area a year later and had a double mastectomy, followed by Letrozole.

It is always one of the most scary times of anyone's cancer journey when they are waiting for a diagnosis. Not all lumps are cancerous. You are also young, so I'm am thinking of you and, I hope that nothing untoward is found.

Do please let us know how you get on. We are always here for you and, know the agonies that you are curretly going through.

Kind regards,

Jolamine xx

Hi Rainbell,

I am just back from the GP today with a red-flag referral to breast screening dept at hospital in the next two weeks for a hard immobile lump in my breast too. Had a look here to find unfortunately or fortunately.. I'm not alone.

 I don't want to tell anyone about it. I'm 53, a mum and teacher xx 

Thank you both for the comments, I'm sorry to hear you've both been/are going through scary times. :(

The doctor felt them (apparently there was more than 2) and said they feel like cysts. He seemed very confident about it. He said he can't refer me to any scans etc because they're all closed. But I'm going back in 2 weeks to be checked again to see if they've grown. I'm not sure what makes him think they're cysts since they're immobile, but I'm so relieved. Still anxiously waiting for the next appointment in 2 weeks though. :(
