Lump not showing up on mammogram

Lump not showing up on mammogram

I discovered a lump went to the doctor for an exam. She found it and sent me for a mammo and ultra sound. Nothing is showing up on either test. I feel it the doctor and mammo tech felt it. WHat can it be that it isn't showing up. I have an appoitnemnt with a breast surgeon but it isn't for another 2 weeks and this is making me a little crazy.

Dear anno100:  Breast lumps can be many things and the general rule is that if there is a new breast lump, evaluation would be recommended.  A negative mammogram and ultrasound suggests that there is no obvious malignancy.  However, as none of our tests are perfect, it is reasonable to get the opinion of a breast surgeon.
