I finally stopped panicking and decided to see a doctor

I found a small ball in my left armpit like 2 weeks ago , freaked the hell out of me as if I was experiencing ach in my left boob a month ago which I got them checked and scanned and they were normal and healthy but my brain was looking for anything to keep me anxious lol , so I was touching that freaking ball every single hour ! drove me crazy I was panicking and crying and telling every friend or family member about it and they all weren’t concerned, then I decided to finally get it checked which was a hard decision cuz I didnt want to hear bad news , the doc was very sweet when I told her about my anxiety , she checked me so well , checked both armpits and pressed so hard , well she DIDNT FIND ANYTHING, I was going crazy like I even pointed to the exact location of the ball she still couldn’t find it lol , this kinda made me much better I suddenly stopped checking my armpit completely, and my boob got better but now I have a back ache which makes me think about something else ,lol , I re wish I could be just normal again :), I am kinda proud of myself for going to the doc alone and fighting all my fear and yes that made me better but I still gotta work on the other aches that makes me anxious

Breast pain when I move my arm

25 yo female , I felt pain in my right breast just right before my period , not on one spot specifically but the pain shifts sometimes under my boob , or in the center chest area , sometimes I feel dull pain in my armpit area or ribs and shoulders and back , :( I was terrified and went to the doctor , took ultrasound on my boobs and asked for a prolactin test , all came normal , my pain isn’t severe at all but it makes me so anxious and uncomfortable and the pain only is felt when I bend or stretch my right arm forward or up, the doctor said it could be muscular issue, and I don’t have any history at all of breast Cancer , anyone experienced the same pain ? I’m worried because my period is over for a week now and it’s kinda still aching
Edit : forgot to mention the doctor diagnosed me with fibrocystic breast disease , but my brain still makes me anxious:(
