Breast cancer?

Worriednic
Offline

Hi everyone,

I'm sure there's plenty in the same boat as myself. But I'm sat here worrying not able to sleep.

 

Earlier before a bath I noticed an indentation in my right breast. I'm only 26, but after using dr Google (I know its bad) there doesn't seem to be any other explanations for this other than cancer....will be ringing the doctors in the morning but cant put my mind at ease.

 

 

Is there anything else that causes breast puckering or is it pretty much a certainty? Thanks for your help in advance

  • Hello Worriednic and welcome to the forum.

    I hope you've managed to get an appointment with your doctor and it won't be long before you can speak with them about this but whilst you wait I just wanted to let you know that many of our members are in similar positions so will understand what you're going through at the moment and will hopefully be along soon to offer their support and advice.

    Fingers crossed this isn't any cause for concern.

    All the best,

    Hey!

    I'm 26 and in the same boat. I have a dimple on my right breast. Went to the GP who also found a lump and I've got my 2 week wait appointment on Monday to see what they say.

    Try not to Google, I know that's easier said than done, but it will only add more worry.

    Try to take some time to do something you enjoy whilst you wait - I know I've spent most of my week having bubble baths!

    I will pop back here after my appointment on Monday to let you know what I find out.

    Feel free to message me in the meantime!

    Sending lots of love,
