Hello everyone
After a few weeks of having a strange feeling in my right breast, and a bruise like feeling when wearing a bra/touching it.. I decided to call the doctor today
They were great and got me in today for a check over - my worst nightmare came true as the doctor has found a lump. If the top of your breast was 12 o'clock , the lump is at 7 o'clock , on the under side and slightly to toward my rib/underarm
When I first arrived he told me due to my age (29) that it's probably a cyst and they would give me antibiotics? But after feeling it he said I need to be seen at the breast clinic
of course I am not fearing the worst.
I have had a course of strange symptoms over the last year which have been investigated and nothing was found eg bruising all over my legs and feet, tiredness , nausea , stomach pain, shoulder pain, swollen glands on and off. Despite having these checked at different points I'm now thinking what if it's breast cancer and it's secondary or has spread elsewhere and that's why I'm ill all the time and spending half my time sleeping.
Relating to my breast, specific symptoms include sore area on the breast like a bruise, hard feeling like the tissue is thicker across the bottom of my breast, moveable lump - it doesn't appear to be round , more a strange shape... no redness that I can see and no nipple change.
