Hi Cherel, by accident I found this site. How have you been? Looks like your message here was since year 2005. I hope nothing serious has happened to your breast. I have exactly the same problem as yours. Joint pain lately and a mild stinging pain in my left breast. The pain in my breast happened a good 6 to 8 years now. I havent been for a check up except once. And the doc told me there is nothing just by touching. However, I still feel the pain. Initially I didnt feel any lumps or abnormality. But lately when I lift up my arms, I felt something on the lower quadrant side of my breast. Like you, I love caffaine...but I only have a cup a day. Is it really due to caffaine that gives us the pain or something else? I dont have any insurance....so I am scared. Cynthia
