… hello. I am only 28 and I have history of breast cancer in my family from both my Mom and my Nan.
I found a lump in my right breast a few weeks back and went to the Doctors and they just wanted to keep an eye on it. Went back for a check up Friday and the doctor was still worried so told me I need a mammogram so I have it booked in tomorrow and I am so scared.

When will I find out the results and what can I expect? Im too young for all this. I have had a rollercoaster year and thought things were finally on the up and then this.

Please help …
