Any Input on my lump?

I have a lump in my breast that was found by my doctor about 7 months ago. We did an ultrasound and they saw something, but they said it wasen't of any concern and my doctor would decide if he wanted to do anything further. My doctor and I both decided to wait and see how it reacted each month with my cycle. I am pretty sure I noticed it more so at times of the month than others. Well, I had a partial hysterectomy and it has been about 5 months since that and I now feel a bigger lump in my breast. Above my chest also feels a litte sore (like by my chest bone). Has anyone ever dealt with anything like this? Should I be worried about possible breast cancer? I am 31 years old.

Hi,..I had a full a hysterectomy July12th,.. never had bumps in my breasts until now,...and I just had a mam o gram, and ultra sound,...I was told I have lots of thick fibroidous tissues, in a spot close to where I feel the lump, but not over the lump??? I am wondering if the previous surgery has influenced any cancerous growth??? Hang in there,..you are not alone in your wondering,...but don't let people tell you it's nothing,..have it  checked out!!! I am only 29. I am wondering at this point how worried I should be too! I do not know the actual results from my DR. at this time,....

You should tell your doctor that you want it biopsied!!! WHAT did you Md think it was?? If he though it was "nothing" he should have told you what he thought it was, like cyst, etc. Any lump that ha even been found in my breasts was always biopsied w/ a needle. The place where you had the mammo or ultrasound can usually do a needle biopsy (which is painless). If it's a cyst the biopsy will likely drain it and it should be gone. If it's solid the sample will be analysized by a pathologist. Your health insurance should cover it.  If you think the lump has changed, have it checked out
