Hi, a year ago I started to become concerned about my breasts they were feeling lumpied im ashamed to say ive done nothing about it, im now in a lot of pain I think I have several areas of thickened hard lumoy tissue and ive felt a few pea shaped lumps and my glands feel like they have got much bigger, I recently went to the gp she had a feel and said she would refer me as I did have very lumpy breasts and they are painful and I have a family history of breast cancer, she said she didnt think I needed a two week referal so ive waited 3 weeks for an appointment 
im now scared if I have I may have left it too late, im also concerned but forgot to mention severe pain im having in both sides of my collar bone and in my knee caps, I am only 34 im really scared it could be cancer and I may have secondary cancer for leaving it so long, I know im prob just being silly but I dont trust my gp she never seems to take me seriously and I hardly ever go now
Hello Winters - sorry to hear that you are going through this worrying time. Do you have an appointment date? This waiting time can be very difficult - try to find things you can do to take your mind of it, even if just for a short while. I set myself small goals for each day so that I had something else to focus on. Also, try not to google - easier said than done as I know from my own experience. There is a lot of outdated and incorrect information out there.
Wishing you well
