PLEASE CALL UR FAMILY PHYSICIAN ASAP- DO NOT WAIT ON THIS ONE. MORE THAN LIKELY, A MAMMOGRAM, AND PERHAPS A NEEDLE BIOPSY ON THE LUMP SITE WILL BE DONE. I WOULD RECOMMEND THAT U BE REFERRED 2 A SPECIALIST BY UR FAMILY PHYSICIAN. IF U DON'T HAVE ONE, FIND ONE IN UR LOCAL AREA. ONCE A NEEDLE BIOPSY IS DONE, THE TYPE OF "CELLS" IN THIS LUMP CAN BE IDENTIFIED- GOOD CELLS/ BAD CELLS.....BUT, FIRST U MUST GO TO A DR. WITH UR SYMPTOM & CONCERNS. IF U R NOT SATISFIED, OR FEEL THEY ARE UNCONCERNED WITH THIS ISSUE, PLEASE, PLEASE GO TO ANOTHER PHYSICIAN. THIS MUST BE ADDRESSED IMMEDIATELY- TAKE CARE & GOOD LUCK!

touch your lump if it is moving then it would be benign if not then it would be something serious. I had my lump removed but I knew it was not breast cancer because when i touched it , it moved. It was along process from mammogram to ultrasound. Like my doctor said if it is moving then it is not serious. When you take a shower raise your hands up and touch your breast, you can clearly feel your lump. that's the way women should use BSE (breast self examination) when taking a shower. So goodluck..

You received a lot of good advice, go see your doc.
Is the lump hard or soft? Does it hurt to touch it?

Do you have a regular MD? If so call him - or her or your OB
for a breast exam - don't worry about a thing until you see them and they want to test you further, possibly. Early detection is key - if you don't have any of those MD's ask a friend who they use (family MD and or OB)

See your family doctor who will send you to the proper doc. Most likely a oncologist-cancer doc.
Good luck

Call your doctor's office and ask for an appointment. They can schedule you for a mammogram. Any doctor in my clinic can do so, so I presume the same in your situation.
