Well I wouldn't even say it's a lump, it's some kind of swollen area, I think it's a lymph node and it's on the upper outer part of my right boob. What's freaking me out is about two months ago I went to the gp with a mole that appeared during pregnancy about two years ago, I thought it was melanoma, the SkinVision app told me it was high risk and to check it, so I did, the gp wasn't concerned, measured it, did the abcde, said all was fine. But this swelling I can feel is below where this mole is ! When I have a feel of my boob it bloody hurts afterwards.
I'm going to call the gp tomorrow and ask for a female but in the meantime I'm worried I have melanoma and it's spread to my lymph nodes!

No, it's because all lumps go through the same referral process regardless if Dr thinks it's cancer or not, any lump needs addressing. Dr told me she wasn't conferenced but I got put on the 2 week pathway to rule out cancer, as standard.

Well the appointment is tomorrow, so hopefully will find out what it is either way.
I've had a couple a cycle now of ovulation and period and it hasn't changed, hasn't become tender or anything so I'm guessing it's not hormonal
