I am 23 years old I have a 19 month old daughter that is constantly digging her elbow into my breast because she climbs on me and climbs down(up,down,up, down I think you get my drift) so that could be where I could have gotten this lump from. but I don't think so. Saturday and Sunday where I think I feel a lump was tender to the touch, but right now it doesn't hurt. I asked my mother and she said when she was my age she had a lump removed but it was not cancerous so that kinda makes me a little nervous. I may be over reacting but I moved my doctors appointment up so he can see me wednesday but the nurse did say since I drink a lot of caffiene that could cause tender lumps in my breast. So if you can give some kind of advice or comment I would appreciate it.

You're already doing the best thing you can by seeing your doctor ASAP....good for you!
MOST breast lumps are benign (cysts, swollen/infected glands, non-malignant tumors, etc). But regardless of age, cancer can and does occur. Just bear in mind that MOST are benign.
Be absolutely sure to ask your questions while you're there, and make sure your doctor is treating this aggressively; you can never be too safe. Ask for a mammogram AND a breast ultrasound...double insurance.
Good luck to you...things are going to be fine.

Caffeine does not cause breast cysts or areas of fat necrosis or tumors. Pay no attention to an office nurse. The probability is high it is perfectly benign.
