Hi. 

I am in the same situation. I have a lump in my nipple that has been there a while, I had a course of antibiotics some time ago and went back to the doctors and he seemed to think that the lump had gone down a bit. 

The lump is back with a vengeance, bigger than before. I have been referred to the breast clinic and my apt is Wednesday. 

I also have four young children and if you need to talk, I'm here. 

Hi just wanted to reply,

Try not to worry and take one day at a time..there is lot of waiting!! 

The breast clinics are lovely and a one stop shop for everything that needs to been done...if anything needs to be done

You will probably be examined and if they feel necessary be sent for ultrasound and then they will decide if you need biopsy.

I know some people are told the same day if they suspect cancer...I have been to clinic twice and never told on the day.

Then the dreaded wait for results

I first went in june 2019 ultrasound/ biopsy waited 7 weeks for results came back benign 

Went back to clinic in January 2020 more ultrasound/biopsies told she thought it was infection.

Called in for results had high grade DCIS

MRI..13 Biopsies and 6 Biopsies under mammogram later and they had discovered different areas in the breast. All the time the staff an nurses are absolutely lovely. I was on my own due to covid.

I had a right sided mastectomy on the 21st may

Brilliant care from start to finish 

And got the all clear on Monday just gone.

If you have any questions please just ask x

remember try not use dr google x
