Hi I am 38 yrs old and found a thickened area on my left breast around 7 weeks ago, I left it a full cycle before consulting gp who referred me to breast clinic yesterday, whilst at the clinic the nurse couldn’t find my area of concern but sent me for a mamagram and ultrasound to check as my boobs are lumpy anyway. Once in xray dept I am told I wouldn’t be having ultrasound as they couldn’t fit me in today so they would ring me in the week with an appointment but sent me for a mammogram which was carried out however during the mammogram the technician was more concerned about my other breast and did 3 magnifying images of my nipple? When I was leaving I saw image of nipple and it was very bright white should I be concerned?
