Hi mumma123, I just wanted to say please get it checked out, I don’t wish to scare you but I had the same thing and it was unfortunately cancer, I was so fortunate I was referred and seen within 2 weeks . I had no palpable lumps but after a lumpectomy and radiotherapy I am now 2 years on and consider myself very lucky . Best of luck nicky xxx

Hi nicky453

was your nipple constantly inverted or like I say I could pop it back out again? I am a tad worried if that's the case. I suffer with health anxiety as it is. Will definitely bring it up with the nurse tomorrow. I have been having pain in the breast too but both of them so just out that down to hormones. And also my armpits have been itching, just thought it was shaving. Now I'm getting a bit worried x

Hi I could pop it out but it didn’t stay out, I didn’t have any pain or anything else , it most definitely could be hormones and I am so sorry if I have scared you but I tell everyone now if you notice any changes at all get it checked out. I was 46 when diagnosed and just thank my lucky stars every day that I mentioned it to my gp. Let me know how you get on and always here for a chat if you need me xxx

Did it instantly go back in? Sorry for the questions, I know everybody is different aswell, just trying to find out what others have gone through, also I am very sorry to hear you have gone through this and I'm glad you are well now. If I take my bra off and I'm cold it instantly comes out itself, if I'm not cold I give it a little massage and it comes out, I don't think i have noticed if it has gone back in much after it's comes out, to be honest considering the anxiety I haven't been so worried about this issue lol. Typical, it will probably be sinister this time! Sometimes if I peek in my bra it will just look flat like it normally does and other times it look slightly open, I think that's inverted slightly I'm not sure. Sorry for the long post. Xx

It’s ok lovely , yes mine went straight back in and didn’t cone out when cold just when I prodded it,  I’m sure you’ll be fine but I’m now obsessed with telling everyone as I just wasn’t expecting my diagnosis I’m so sorry to scare you xxx better to be safe than sorry x

Don't be silly!!! It's not your fault at all. It's good that you want to share your story with other to help make them aware! I mean, I have been keeping an eye on it for few weeks and just thought I'd mention it to the nurse tomorrow and I'm sure she will just tell me to speak to a GP. This is going to sound weird, but I actually find it quite funny to watch, like when I watch it come out I can see the whole nipple moving it's really bizarre. I guess this is my new way of trying not to worry about it. But honestly please don't be sorry, be proud!!! Proud that you have got through this and you have the confidence to make others breast aware and share your story! It's a big thing to want to share with others, I mean I don't know you and I'm proud of you already! And you are absolutely right it is better to be safe than sorry!!! I am one to be in the doctors straight away with an issue which is why I have surprised myself to hold off this long with this problem, like I said previously it will be typical that this will be the sinister problem. I had a breast scare 4 years ago when I was pregnant with my son, after a year of fighting with the doctor they finally sent me for an ultrasound and I was told it was a fibroadenoma. There is part of my mind that has the worry they have got it wrong and Iv been living with something sinister for this long, who knows. Hopefully not. Xxx

Aww thank you , fingers crossed for you positive thoughts only !!!, let me know how you get on xxx

Forgot to say one thing I did have was tiredness for a couple of months prior but put that down to being winter, doing the school run and working, only afterwards I thought that explains it

You know I have been looking up the difference between tiredness and fatigue, only because I have been feeling tired recently, like I would say the last week more so, with the lockdown I was being a right lazy cow, homeschooling would be the only thing I done, housework was a no no. But last week I stepped up my game and spent the whole week keeping on top of things, except the homeschooling haha. This week especially today, I have really struggled to get out of bed in the morning, and today I just can't be bothered to do anything, I really wanted to nap but my 1 year old had other ideas, once I'd finally got up and done dinner and ate again I felt fine. Not sure if I'm overthinking this or not. I got to bed at about 10 and sleep around 11.30, have been trying to get myself into a routine to get up on time ready for school next week and it just hasn't worked lol. Xx

To be fair home schooling would tire anybody out, I work for the nhs so have been able to keep my 9yr old in full time thank god, hats off to all the parents who have stuck to it roll on Monday !!! 

That's true, homeschooling an 8 year old who doesn't want to do it. A 4 year old who just sits in the Nintendo switch all day and a 1 year old that doesn't want me to do anything but hold her or she will scream the house down probably the reason I am tired! Lol. oh how lovely to be a part of the nhs, although in a pandemic probably not quite as nice. I agree, I certainly haven't stuck to it everyday haha xx

Hiya, 

had my cervical screening this afternoon, spoke to the nurse about my breast, was lucky really because she actually asked me if I check my breasts regularly. So she had a look and it looks normal, which is typical, she had a feel too and said there is no concern and to keep and eye and if it does start to get worse or more symptoms arise then to go to the doctor. So will just keep an eye for now. Hope you are ok x

Great news xxx

Hi Nicky, how are you? 
 

whilst doing my breast checks I found a pea size lump behind my nipple, but on the other breast? Has made me a tad worried. I have just come off my period so unsure if it's there for that reason. I don't think I have noticed it before. It feels hard I think, unsure if it moves and painless. That nipple is pierced and has always been a bit crusty and sometimes gives off a quick pain every now and then. I think I'm trying to think of excuses of what it could be x
