Hi everyone  I have breast clinic appointment on 22 April I'm so scared and anxious right now. 

Last week I noticed my right nipple go invert sometimes after that I keep checking my breasts and while I was having shower I noticed there is small lump in same breast I was so worried next day been to GP she checked and said she can feel what I feel but it's more like a milk duts and she said because of nipple inversion I can send you to breast clinic but she said I'm sure there is nothing and don't worry about too much .

But now I'm so sacred I'm 37 years old and I have 2 daughters I'm worried about them and all other things just here to get some advice because it seems like no one understand what I'm going through and what I'm feeling right now maybe I can get some advice or reassurance here.

  •  i believe you would  have a mammogram then ultrasound … and possibly a biopsy …. None of which hurt and all routine xx
    all the odds of a favourable outcome are on your side xx

     Please come back after and let us know how you get on x

  • Ok I will thanks for replying. 

    I'm OK with ultrasound and mammogram but I'm really sacred from biopsy I will comeback and update after my appointment 

  • The thought of a biopsy is scary  but they give you a local anaesthetic so you don't feel a thing. You'll only need a biopsy if they can see something on the mammogram or ultrasound.

  • Awww thanks dear for replying that's helpful

  • I completely understand how you feel, these appointments are so worrying it’s horrible. I recently bought some rescue remedy which really helped calm me down. Maybe get some of that and take it, it’s all completely natural, a nurse recommended it to me when she could see how anxious I was. 

    As for your boob, please take reassurance from your GP, they don’t think it’s an issue but just referring you for second opinion which is what they do as standard now so my GP told me. 

  • Thanks for replying dear 

    What is that remedy can you please tell me the name 

  • It’s called “Bach rescue remedy dropper” from boots/amazon. They do pastilles too I think. 

  • Thanks I will try them

  • Please don’t be afraid of a biopsy , you probably won’t have one , but when I had mine they had to go in twice in different areas and honestly they numb your boob and you really do not feel a thing.

    I’m a wimp and I would say if it was bad but believe me it wasn’t . Xx
