I also found a lump in right breast in the shower, in April 2012. What a lifesaver showers are, it seems they are much more reliable than mammograms! Diagnosis took until August as everyone was quite sure it was a cyst, GP could hardly feel it, mammogram showed nothing, ultrasound showed cyst (most probably) fnb nothing, core biopsy showed cancer. Because of pain (quite a lot) they thought they'd infected the 'cyst' with the fnb and put me on antibiotics and a 7 week delay before core biopsy. So my message is the same as many others, check yourself and follow up on anything that doesn't feel right. BTW, turned out to be a 2cm DCIS, grade 3 TNBC, no nodes involved.
