Roughly the end of Summer 2023, I was aware of a small lump in my left breast. It felt about 1cm, fairly hard, movable and didnt really hurt.
It seemed to be more sensitive around the time of the month, which was never predictable due to my implant so I put it down to hormones.
I felt it and felt it and felt it and eventually thought I had better have it checked out at the Drs as Im 47 and peri menopausal, over weight and have always had fairly big boobs!
The female Dr was lovely but said she couldnt feel anything and it was probably nothing and to come back if it got bigger or changed in any way.
I went home feeling a little dismissed but thought Drs know best usually.
And so, it remained there and I continued to feel it and make sure it wasnt growing or changing.
