I don't know whether to bother the doctor - change in my breasts

[lumpsdumps]

In the last week I have noticed a change in both of my breasts with the areola looking darker and I have several other bits of dark patches going towards my armpits, is this a normal thing to happen?

It's not something I've heard of (but that doesn't say a lot), IMO it's always well worth having these things checked.

Always worth having any change in your breasts checked out. You will not be bothering your doctor at all.

I'm terrible about going to the doctors, always think I can put it off for as long as possible! The hubby thinks I need to go as well as he's never seen them look like they are at the moment and he's quite concerned.

If it was only on one breast I think it might be more suspicious. I am scared of going to the docs too and convince myself I have got something really bad. Take the plunge and show the doc. Chances are it wont be too much to worry about and you will feel a whole lot better IME.
