Series of strange events

I found a tiny lump in my breast before Christmas. Maybe oct/Nov time. Thought I'd just keep an eye on it. It felt a bit bigger just before Christmas.  But again. See how it goes after Christmas. In the mean time from mid 2020 I've been having what I think/thought was sciatica pain down my right side so taking pain relief for that. 2 weeks ago I had this terrible pain in my right arm bicep/shoulder thought it was maybe a trapped nerve but still not right now. Now this lump is definitely bigger or swollen or both so I went to the gp yesterday. She did bloods and gave me antibiotics as a precaution and referred me to the breast clinic. Since last night I've had  a strange tingling almost like pins and needles in my right hand ? Linked? Coincidence?  :neutral::cry:

  • Hi Lace85,

    Welcome to Cancer Chat. It's good to hear you've had this checked out and that you've got a referral - hopefully this will provide some answers before too long.

    It's hard for anyone other than the medical professionals to say what might be going on - try to keep your mind off it as much as possible while you wait for your appointment. I know this is often easier said than done.

    If you'd like some information about what to expect at the clinic then please take a look at this link.

    Wishing you all the best,
