My PCP found a lump on the outside of my right breast its not tender and she said that my breast feels very full and almost swollen. I am going for a mammo and ultra sound tomorrow and just a little nervous cause any other lumps that I have felt have been tender and this one is not. Just wondering if it could be that lymph node being swollen?
