Sorry if this seems silly but I really need some consolation on this.

I've had breast pain for about three days now, non-cyclical which I have never experienced before. It's throbbing and aching and it's in my larger breast and I am now terrified as I am incredibly carcinophobic. I have also had LUQ pain since last year that I once suspected was related to my gastro issues, however my gastro issues pretty much cleared up and yet that pain is still present. I had a clear ultrasound for this pain earlier this year, however no investigation went into the rib.

Now I am terrified I either have the big C in the breast, in the rib or both. I am 18 and am praying with everything to not have my life change for the worse. I am trying to convince myself that this is in my head since as I said I am incredibly carcinophobic and have also lost my Nan recently who also had the big C in her breast, but it's so hard to dismiss my biggest fear.

What's more is that when I tried to call the GP today, not a single appointment was available. They told me to call in the morning tomorrow, but I can't as I have very early school every weekday. I understand this is not their fault and probably because of Covid, but I can't help but feel all the more terrified.

I just don't know what to think and feel very lonely in this. I really don't want my fears to be true. I'm so sorry if this seems silly but I just needed to confide in someone.
