Just wanting to say hello.

I am 36 and a mum to 7.  2 and half years ago I was reffered to breast clinic as I gad two lumps which I was told were fat lumps on ultrasound.  Those have turned to three and larger.  I had my nhs fitted implants removed but capsules left behind.  I was told there would always be a risk of BIA-ALCL as I had textures implants and capsules left.  

Over the past couple of weeks the pain in my left breast got worse, slight puckering when I lift my arm up. On Sunday night my husband noticed bloody discharge from my left nipple when I was getting my pjs on.  He took photos.  It isnt constant and comes and goes but I am taking photos when I notice it.   GP said no infection and referred me to breast clinic as urgent.  

I am worried.

  • Hi you should be seen really soon, by a consultant, then all the tests to check.Yoi will be well looked after by all the nurses and staff. Macmillan are wonderful some hospitals have a walk in centre you can chat to them. Wishing you all the best xx
