Leaking boob

[Natsteveo]

Hey ladies I'm wondering if u could give me some advice.

I'm a 40 year old woman and have been going to the breast clinic for 3 years running as I had leaky milky fluid leaking from my breast (only one) and luckily it's been all clear results but this time it's like a watery blood like fluid I'm absolutely petrified as I have health anxiety anyway as I lost my mum to pancreatic cancer 8 years ago so everything I experience I convince myself it's the big 'c' .i can't eat or sleep I've been doctors and I've got my hospital appointment in 2 weeks the leaking has slowed down a it but it

Is defiantly got blood I it all my t shirts keep getting little dots of blood where it keeps leaking I am scared out me wits has anyone ever experienced this as well or know of anyone many thanks

Hi 😊

I understand your anxiety, having found a breast lump myself last year.

As you probably know there are other likely causes for the discharge other

than cancer. It doesn't exactly give peace of mind to know this but it does

show we shouldn't always presume the worst.

I actually recall my mother having a similar symptom, investigation showed

it was caused by a blocked milk duct, she was in her 50s at the time.

Best wishes 😊 xB
