I found a lump 2.5 weeks ago when my 2 year old banged in to my breast, I left it a week then went to the docs, she agreed there was a lump but was unsure whether to refer me, she was humming and arringove rit and said she would go by the guidelines, i am under 35 ( iam 34) and no family history. she said to wait until after my period. She also said not to worry as everyone she has reffered lately has been clear. i am now on my period and still have the lump, i am worried sick. I have two children and am a single parent and beside myself! has anyoe had any other symptoms? i have lost half a stone and feel sick and run down but no other obvious symptoms on my boob.

Hi I have a lump/mass,pain and discharge and I’m 36 and I am going to be seen next week privately as Nhs can’t see me for another 8weeks…everyone is different and outcomes are also very different but all I will say is listen to your body and if you feel the lump doesn’t go away after period and its not normal for you then get it seen to…Emma x
hi bowbow
i would make another appointment and let the doctor know, or a different doctor, just how worried you are. it makes no difference what ‘others’ tests were, if its making you ill, you need some answers.
no harm trying again, its obviously worrying you a lot, give them a ring.
good luck,
angie xx
