    Sorry you're going through this.  Even if you post a picture, no one on this site can give you a medical diagnosis--we're not doctors.  Please go heck with your doctor.  Most anything can be helped if caught in time.  Best of luck to you. xx

    If you or anyone has any change in your breasts, you really must go to your doctor, breast cancer is not always a lump. Unsure why you have left it 6 months. But sadly people do.

    Make  an appointment with your gp, then hopefully he will put your mind at rest or if he is concerned, will make an appointment for you to see a breast cancer specialist.

    if in doubt, check it out, breast cancer does NOT go away without treatment.
