I’m so scared I have breast cancer

Im 21 and noticed a white mark on my left nipple almost like a stretch mark last Thursday with no other symptoms and then on the Friday I started to get some symptoms. I haven't noticed any lumps but under my areola feels strange, like I can move something around. 

The white looking stretch mark has made my areola  white and almost disappear. My breast started feeling like it was burning but I'm not sure if that was psychological, I have severe anxiety and I google everything, I know I'm not supposed to. 
my breast kind of feels like it did when I went through puberty kinda like it was growing (could be the case, I have put on over a stone in a year) there is some slight pain and discomfort. 

im not sure if my nipples are leaking discharge, they both feel sticky but I'm not sure if that's sweat. 
I called 111 today and they said a clinician will call me back but I'm just so scared. I haven't been able to eat or sleep properly since Thursday. I'm feeling very low right now. 

  • Hello anxiousgirl

    I'm sorry to hear that you've recently noticed some changes to your breast. It's understandable that you're feeling anxious and searching Google will unfortunately not have helped. Please do avoid looking for information on the internet. 

    If you've not already spoken with your GP then do get in touch with them as they will be best placed to arrange to see you and offer any treatment or referral that may be appropriate. 

    I hope things settle and improve for you soon. 

    Best wishes,
