Hello brave people, 

Can please someone guide me , first I tell you my symptoms. I am having yellowish discharge from one breast when I squeeze it since 2 weeks ,Now feeling heaviness and soreness kind of feeling in same breast that is going till armpit.  Had a telephone appointment with GP she gave me blood test to check my hormones first then she will decide where to refer me whether endocrinologist or to breast clinic. Will go on Monday for blood test. I agree to it on telephone at that time but now feeling anxious that gp is wasting time and should refer me to breast clinic straight away. What you think I should do wait for my test results or should I ring back to gp and ask her to refer me sooner. Will few weeks makes any difference? 

  • Ask on Monday for breast clinic referral .  It can always be cancelled if not needed.  Reason being with lock down less appointments and you are in system . I'm guessing your GP checking for infection?

    Thank you for your reply.  She wants to check my thyroids. Though I never had any thyroid problems before.Gp thinks it is not infection. 

  • Ok I just googled that . Hypothyroidism symptom is nipple  discharge.  Do you have other symptoms ?

    No I don't have any other symptoms.  I have lumpy breast since few years last year I went to gp and she said it is because of hormones. I am 34 years old. But now only one nipple is having discharge. I think I will call on Monday to refer me to breast clinic for my peace of mind.

    I would leave alone no squeaking.Have you had children , breast fed ? I think most likely to be infection

    But

    I think it would be sensible to discuss with GP re referral as you have concerns and go for blood tests .

    Keep you in thoughts  xx
