Hey there! Everything I have posted is under an alias because I am very weird about personal ailments/concerns getting out. I will be officially 26 y/o this Sunday. I am a female. Not sure if it ethnicity matters but since it asked me in my profile specs- I am white.

The past 5 months I have been getting dry/scaley rash spots centralized on my chest. I have a few spots on my abdomen but there are about 20 on my chest. I have been meaning to go to a doctor for it again. Initially I went to the Dr for the spots and she misdiagosed it as a metal allergy to the underwire in my bra and prescribed me steroid ointment. I have stopped wearing underwire completely and just now wear loose fitting sports bras. Finished the ointments. The spots have just gotten worse. My father passed away recently due to heart failure so I have just been putting myself on the back burner. I have dull/achey sternum pain that I can't place to anything. It constantly hurts with every movement I make. Again, my mother was hospitalized for pancreatitis so I put myself on the back burner. Well last night after a shower I was drying off and ran a towel like I always do over my body. I touched a spot on my left breast that was raised and very tender. A swollen lump on tissue right below my nipple. There had been a darker purple spot there for a while I had ignored because my life has been so hectic lately. Now it is peely, lumped up, and very tender/painful. Which I had some dull throbbing pains in my left breast area to my arm pit two nights prior before bed to the point where I had to squeeze the area myself to distract me. This morning I noticed a dark painful red patch under my right breast nipple also. Painful to the touch as well.

I called my family Dr. who misdiagnosed me as a metal allergy and asked for a referral to a dermatologist. The receptionist recommended me to see my doctor before hand. So I have an appt this Monday at 4:30pm.

Any honest thoughts/words of advice/anything would be nice.♡

I am stressed.
