In June my left breast really started to hurt, it felt heavy and like someone was pulling on me from inside, both a dull ache and stabbing pain all the time which just wasn't going away. In July I spoke to a doctor over the phone who advise to take paracetamol and call back if it doesn't disappear and due to my age (31) its prob nothing and may be down to periods etc.
I've been convincing myself all is ok and with a busy young family I've been putting it off terrified (stupid I know)
The pain has suddenly got worse and over the weekend I noticed my left breast has really swollen! Its so painful and I finally spoke to a doctor Tuesday who saw me that evening who said although they can not find any definite lumps my lymph nodes are very swollen so have referred me for scans.
The hospital called today too see me this Saturday morning.
All this happening within 2-4 days have me panicked maybe the doctor didn't like what he could feel??
Also I've noticed since tuesday my left tonsil is massive and swollen and I've convinced myself what ever it is has spread all through my lymph nodes!
I'm trying not to panic but I can't stop crying.
Does anyone have experience of this?
Thank you
