How long should breast pain last??? Please help

[lisak789]

I am sure everyone is so tired of hearing me post on here about the same thing. I just cant be convinced that I dont have breast cancer. I have had all the tests I have been seen by more then 8 doctors, and three of them I see very often. I just needed more opinions to re assure me that I dont have cancer. I have even seen a breast specialist in May. But not one of them has a reason for the breast pain. It goes from the axila to the top of my right breast. It has been 8 months I am sure it should be somewhat better by now? This is only fueling my health anxiety! Now I never seem to feel good, everyday I get up I feel like it will be my last. I just feel no good. Please what should I do now???? There has to be something that there missing for it to be hurting.

Maybe you need to a neurologist? it could be nerve pain of some kind

Way before I started with ha I suffered with my left breast which went on for months. I was sent to see a specialist and he just examined my breast and said it felt fine, didn't even have a scan or anything. I was never given a real cause either, just that it could be nerves, muscular etc etc (sorry can't remember exactly) but as I didn't have ha I accepted what he said. The doctor told me to take evening primrose, although I don't think it did anything. Anyway it eventually went and haven't had any pain there since. This was years ago. I hope it eases soon x

No disrespect but could the pain be to do with ur anxiety? I had a similar problem,had test given all clear.... but convinced myself they were wrong an had pain. then i noticed a pattern - the pain was only there when i was thinking about it.... like if i was busy all day - in the nighttime id think of it, and it would appear??

XXX take care

a while back, I had breast pain... it ended up being a knot in my shoulder, that was radiating through to the front. Have you tried massage? Or maybe a heating pad? Anxiety sure can tense up those back and shoulder muscles.

Good luck!
