I found large lump in right breast when getting dressed on 14/11/12. Was at my Doctor within the hour and having a biopsy within three hours. Turned out it was really 10 lumps plus the ones in my armpit. Largest 5cm smallest 1cm. Even the mamogram I had that day did not show the masses. I had been having mamograms since my mid 20's due to a strong family history and had had one only 12 months prior to my diagnosis. My message is get to know your breasts and even the slightest change is worth seeing your Doctor. Since then I commenced Chemo within 10 days of finding my lump and two months on have had 7 rounds of paclitaxel with 5 to go, plus EC Chemo, Mastectomy and radiation to look forward to.
