Go to the doctors! Whether you think it's a cyst, cancer, a mole, a swolen gland or a cheerio! Get to the doctors.... N-one on here can guess and you shouldn't be either!
Hi there , please put your mind at rest love and go to your GP. You are best not to ignore any lump . It may be an innocent cyst but wouldn't you rather know for sure ?
Try not to worry , all the best x :-)
Hi havinmysay, Please don't be unduly worried, go to the Drs and get it checked out, when my wife had breast cancer, she never had any lumps at all, her breast just felt different, so get yourself there asap, get it checked and put your mind at rest, good luck and take care, Ray xx
I would like to echo what has been said. For your own peace of mind make a GP appointment asap. I have been through this and it was a benign lump, I know how scary it can be! All I can think of is that cysts and fatty lumps feel 'mobile' whereas a tumour usually feels more part of the breast and often has a rich blood supply. However, this is not set in stone and nothing can beat a full and thorough examination so dont delay in getting checked out.
havinmysay, everyone is giving you good advice here. See your doctor asap. Don't get too worried at this stage though, as the majority of lumps are harmless. Having said that, if it is more serious, you will have seen a doctor in the early stages and so will have the best chance of successful treatment. It is never good to delay getting these things checked out. I wish you all the best. We will be here for you whatever the outcome, so please let us know how you get on. Big hug of support and courage! XXX :o)
