heavy left breast and lumps - VERY SCARED

Hi @Amelia_98  - and welcome to the forum from me too, though obviously I’m sorry you find yourself here. You’ve already had wise words from Jill but I didn’t want to read your post and not stop by to send you a big hug and echo what Jill said - that we are here to help you get through this worrying time. 

Sometimes it’s easier to chat on here anonymously than to talk to our family and friends, but I wonder if you also have a friend or family member who you could confide in and who will hold your hand through this.

The waiting time is tough, but please try to stay away from google. Dr Google really doesn’t know you or your symptoms and only serves to worry us. As Jill says, your GP wasn’t concerned, but it’s very usual for GPs to refer people to the breast clinic just to be 100% sure. There are many other explanations for lumps, most are harmless.

Please don’t feel you need to apologise in any way, in no way was your post “whining”, far from it. It came across as someone scared and seeking advice, which is exactly what this forum is for.

Sorry, I’ve waffled on. Please stay in touch and chat as often as you like, or as Jill suggests do give the lovely nurses on here a call, or message them via the nurses’ board. Evie xx
