I recently asked a question to a poster on MN about left breast pain and felt reassured by her response. She advised me to chase up a referral from my doctor and that's what I've done. I now have an appt at the be way clinic in 2 weeks time. (For some reason my doc waited almost a month to send the referral letter???)
Anyway I wanted to ask if anyone on here has ever experienced left breast pain and what was the reason for it? It ranges from stabbing pains to a constant dull ache. I also have a specific 'sore spot' near my armpit. I can't feel any obvious lumps although the more I feel the more I think I can....ifyswim. I genuinely can't tell the difference between my lumpy breast tissue and an actual lump. Either way the pain is there constantly now and it's so worrying:(
Any ideas? I'm trying to tell myself that pain alone isn't a symptom of cancer but I made the mistake of reading some forums where lots of women insist that it was their first symptom of cancer.
