Ok guys really need some advice as a bit freaked out. Will stick to the facts. Found a lump in my right breast yesterday. No idea how long its been there- I dont check regularly( Bad bad I know)
Its hard, unmoveable and feels quite deep in the tissue, however its easy to feel and DH found it straight away without me needing to tell him where it was.
Its about the size of a brussel sprout and feels a bit bumpy, like a tightly knotted ball of string
No swelling, inflamation, discharge etc. Lump is not painful.
Im 47 and not on any hormonal BC. 2 DS- both adults now. Not menopausal yet- still very regular.
No breast cancer history in family, but sister and mum both had womb cancer.
Ive been very anemic for last 6 months- heamoglobin levels 8.2. Ive just had an iron infusion. Not clear as to what has caused this.
Have a chronic long term health condtion( Systemic Sclerosis)
Ok- so current climate considered- should i be phoning gp on Monday? Or should I track the lump over the course of my cycle to see if it changes? Im currently day 10 into my 32 day cycle.
If i phone GP will they even be able to see or examine me?
Any advice/ thoughts would be great.
