Next week will be my 4th visit to my local Breast clinic. Last last year I visited my doctor with slight underarm pains and a little lump I had found on my breast. She immediately referred to me to hospital, I didn’t panic as I was only 22 at the time. 3 visits later, various testing I was told there was nothing to worry about and that the lump would simply “go away”.
A year has now passed and just last week I was back at my doctors again with the same problem. Except this time the “lump” has grown in size dramatically and the pain I am feeling in the actual breast and nipple area is unreal and at times keeps me awake at night!
Today I recieved my appointment to go to hospital next week. With no family history Im just looking for some advice and someone to talk to about it.

Hello
I would not worry too much,I went two weeks ago with a large lump in right breast and had mammogram ultrasound biopsy,mine is a fibroadanoma non malignant,I have decided to get it out as sometimes it is uncomfortable!
Good luck Shar x
That’s what I had done the last 3 times! This time it feels so different, getting it removed would hopefully ease the pain and more importantly make me feel better about it all! Thanks for replying
