Emotional support required please

17 weeks ago I found a lump in my breast followed the due process and they found a second lump which has now been taken out, the consultants at every point have been saying that they don't think it cancer but would never have thought it would get this far, and last night I found a new lump in my other breast. I had a mental breakdown today which I think is understandable but really don't know if I'm being paranoid or if I should bring this to my consultant? 

  • Hello 16Ciara89

    I'm sorry to hear that you've been dealing with some concerns associated with breast lumps for the past few months. I'm sure it's been a difficult time for you managing this with the current Covid19 situation. 

    I think it's certainly important that you flag this new lump to your Consultant, breast care nurse or GP. It's important to get any new lump checked out. 

    Hopefully they will be able to arrange to see you quickly and give you some reassurance. 

    Do let us know how you get on. 

    Best wishes,
