Breast dent/line

Hi, this is my first post.

i recently noticed a changed in my right breast a very slight dent shall we say, but when lifting my arm up the dent becomes a line, I've seen my GP who doesn't think it's anything to worry about and probably hormone related but all I'm seeing online is breast cancer! She's still sent me for a urgent referral to a breast clinic which I go to on the 21st which is still a little way off, I have severe health anxiety following cervical cancer and the my daughter having leukaemia at the age of 9 (she's all good now) my mum had breast cancer at 47, I'm really worried that although the GP said it was nothing, that infact  it is something really bad and that we may not have caught it early enough. I'm 40 nearly 41, neither me or the GP could feel any lumps just wondered if anyone else has had something like this and it wasn't cancer, I'm going out of my mind with worry, and barely holding it together

  • I'm really hoping someone out there can give me a bit of hope, I keep breaking down with fear, and worry. The waiting around is the worst part I've still got 11 days to go till I get seen at the breast clinic 

  • Hi tessaann, I didn’t have the same symptoms as you but just thought I’d say hi and say the waiting is definitely the worst part. Try and keep busy and as hard as it is try and stay positive. Sending positive vibes your way and virtual hugs. Take care nicky xxx

  • Thanks nicky 

     going out of my mind I look at my kids and cry with fear that I won't be here anymore, and yes I know it's silly to go to the worst case scenario but this is my normal reaction which isn't good, hubby has said to go private to get test results sooner so we know what I'm dealing with

  • So I went private, I was told they think the dent is mondors disease, but they also found a microcalification on my right breast and advised to follow this through via NHS, went to my nhs appointment today and they came across very *** that I went private and then came to them, sent me away and told me to await a phone call once they had viewed the disc from the private consultation. 2 hours later got a call telling me to go back in 48 hours for a biopsy she sounded very concerned which has got me worried again, the private consultant told me at worst it could be pre cancerous changes but since trawling the internet im finding that this can be DCIS which although is still a good outcome it's still the dreaded C word I'm back to going out of my mind for another week or two now, thougtt he I would keep you all updated.

  • )Hi tessaann sorry to hear your news but keep positive. I’m sure the kids will keep you busy, half term for me next week and can’t wait for some time with my babies ( not babies really 15 and 9) keep us updated will be thinking of you , virtual hugs nicky xxx

  • Wanted to give an update for anyone that stumbles across this post looking for hope!

    after 3 1/2 weeks I finally got my biopsy results back which were benign so not all calcification clusters are cancer or pre cancer. My diagnosis was fibrocystic changes, columned cell change and adenosis classified as B2 benign.
