Been to see my consultand. He agreed that there was thickening. Sent for mammogram and u/sound. Had to then go back for an additional mammo at a different angle. This slightly worried me. But thankfully all was ok. There was some thickening but nothing to worry about. As for the inflammed redness, he said that it could be to do with hormone changes or just an infection. I am soooo relieved that it is over and am now enjoying a chilled glass of Pinot Grigio. Thank you ladies for all you support. You are wonderful and amazing people and I feel that we are all very lucky to have such a fantastic site to cry, laugh and shout on.
Lots of love to you all I will be thinking of you often.

I am glad your result was good but If your redness does not go away soon, or if your nipple inverts or has a
discharge, or if there is no change with 5 days of antibiotics please go and see a consultant again.
Breast Cancer does not always have to be a lump and does not always show up on a mammogram.
I wish you the best for the future.

raising a glass of cabernet to toast your results, tho if your symptoms persist I would seek a second opinion, docs are only human and mistakes can be made, sorry if I am scaring you, but better safe than sorry.
Good Luck.
