Waiting on clinic appointment

Hi
I’m 33 with a seven month old baby. I found a lump in my breast last week. I think I feel something similar on the other side though its not as big. The area I have found the lump I have bashed with the baby’s car seat. Gp says they dont think its sinister though will refer as this is normal practice. Not sure what to think, like others feel like crying, then other times dont think it has happened at all! The wait is horrendous however not looking forward to the clinic either!
