Do you have an appointment with the surgeon scheduled yet? I've had 3 biopsies - 2 surgical and 1 stereotactic, and they all turned out benign. Just remember that a lot of these breast problems turn out ok. I hope yours turns out well, too.
Thanks for your words of reassurance. I am hoping to leave the surgeons office today with some ansewrs. I cannot contnue to live like this, the waiting is too hard. I'm scheduled to leave for New Orleans Tuesday for my job, but I dont know if I can handle being away from my family right now. Keep me in your prayers!
Hopefully the surgeon can give you more info and reassurance tomorrow. Just have your list of questions ready. The uncertainty of these lumps drives us crazy so I hope yours can be removed soon. Let us know how it all turns out. Meanwhile, I'll keep you in my prayers.
I had a mammogram which came back abnormal. I was called baack a week later to have additional pictures at which point the radioloigist stated he wanted me to have an ultrasound and see a surgeon. He stated that whatever it was he was seeing was there in 2004 and 2005, but now it is more prominent. I was called back in 2004 but it was decided it was nothing to worry about. I had the ultrasound this past Friday and it came back negative. My doctor said even though the ultrasound was negative there still needs to be a surgical intervention There is a lump under my right arm which is giving me shoulder and neck pain. I have an appointment with a surgeon tomorrow and I am losing it, has anyone experienced something similar
well i've been having them for months too..do u have a lump? is there pain?
hi there,
i just want to tell u that i have EXACTLY the same symptoms..and am 27 too!!!and in the right breast..i did a mammo..it showed a 'fibroglandular tissue' and an ultrasound to confirm that too..but once u start thinking about it , theres no way to take it out of your mind..so i requested a biopsy..a 'core biopsy' as its more accurate ..and i did one couple of days back..and was waiting for the results today..but guess what..they called to say they LOST the specimen!!! so am planning to repeat it again..coz i really need to end this thing up..i've been thinking about it all the time..to the extent that its affecting my life..hope u the best..
thanks for your comments....i just wanted you to know that ive had these symptoms for several months before i became pregnant, so is this still a common thing?? my shoulder , arm and breast are sore almost all day everyday!
Dear yay: Breast pain and lumpiness is not uncommon, particularly around the time of one
