Hi all
On Sunday 6th June I noticed a protruding lump on my left side, slightly down from my clavical bone and next to my sternum. I thought it was strange and felt the area and noticed it was a weird shape, hard and immobile. I booked a doctors appointment the next day and 2 nurses checked the lump and could not understand what it was. I am now on the 2 week wait for the breast clinic.
I am only 23 years old, everything has happened so quickly and I am terrified waiting for the call to come through. It never occured to me that the position of the lump is classed as breast tissue and since I have been home, I've identified thickening in my left breast below the lump and swelling. Something about this just doesn't feel right at all.
I have been unable to eat and sleep properly due to the worry and seeing the lump every day is a constant reminder of what I am going through. Does anyone have any tips on how to make this waiting period easier? and what I can expect from my breast clinic appointment?
