Absolutely Terrified!

I found this forum today after attending a doctors appointment. 
I have had a swollen lymph node in my right armpit for around three weeks and went to get it checked out. The Doctor decided to do a full examination of my breasts and armpit area and found a lump in my lower right breast. He has asked me to come back in two weeks as I'm due to have my period in the next week, and he wanted to know if this could be playing a part in the lump/ lymph node. I am so scared and not so if I can wait so long as I'm already anxious. Has anyone else had a similar experience? 
 

Thank you for reading

  • Hey thanks yes I am experiencing pain and a very large lump inside which doesn't move it's really big and came as quite a shock when I had pain and then felt my breast and found such a big mass it seems to be attached to breast tissue rather than feeling like it's floating around if that makes sense, just very anxious about getting an answer. I think my worry is more for my kids than me. They need me here xxx scary stuff really very stressful.
