I found a big hard breast lump about 6 months ago. I dismissed it as nothing because I am young (22) have no family history of breast cancer and it moves freely under the skin.
Stupidly I forgot all about it until a week ago I noticed that my nipple in the lumpy breast is inverted. I went to my GP who refered me to the breast clinic. My appointment is tomorrow. Since my Gp ap (she thought it was a cyst) I have been googling. Nipple inversion is bad. Hard lumps are bad. Jagged edges are bad. Worse, my underarms both ache. If this is cancer my stupidity in assuming it was nothing will mean its too late to be treated. How do I cope with that?

i hope you've had some good news today xx

Thank you all for your support. I am left feeling relieved and like a total drama queen. Consultant believes I have fibrocystic breast tissue. Not sure what that is but it's not the nasty cancer that's all that matters.
