breast and ovarian cysts related

I was diagnosed with a complex ovarian cyst the size of 7.5 cm.  Which is causing alot of pain.  They are going to take care of it here soon, but another weird thing has started happening.  I have sharp breast pain and some sort of little cyst or lump on one of my breast.  I have always had lumpy breasts, but this is harder and painful to touch should i be worried.  Is it just hormones going crazy from cyst.  Can they be related.  I had one on my left breast also a couple weeks ago but it went away.  I have never had these before and am just worried.

well went to doctor found out needed surgery on cyst hospital just called said i needed to come up with 4500 dollars before the 25th.  they will not treat until then because they do not think it is emergancy.  the fact that i am in constant throbbing pain that puts me on the couch by three in the afternoon does not mean anything to them.  and on the breast mass which come to find out has blood flow going to it whatever that means.  i have to go to a breast specialist.  to get it biopsied and taken out.  i am just getting a little to overwhelmed on all of this.

got the lump looked at through sonogram turned out it is an unidentified mass in the lymph node on my breast.  have an appointment on the ninth anyways to talk about the cyst and to have the ultrasound reports sent to them.  they are talking about biopsy the mass either through there office or a breast specialist.  all i know is all this is adding up fast and since i could not afford to insure both me and the children.  i now i am stuck with all of this stupid medical junk.

i know i need to get it looked at.  i am just hoping i will wake up and all of this pain and problems will be gone.  i would not even know what to do if there is a problem.  i have not even told my husband yet.  i have a two year old and a five year old and i try to keep up with everything but some days are so hard like today and my two year old just does not understand.  i am just venting and it helps to talk to people who actually understands.  i did have a another question should i ask about ovary removal i have already had a partial hysterctomy due to endo.  thanks for the help you guys.  you do not know how much it helps.  especially on very hard days like this when it hurts really bad just to move.

You can get breast pain with cysts but since yours comes with a lump you should get it looked at.  Good luck and please keep us posted.

columbia as in SC ?? if so there is a free service offered in some counties for mammograms (i used to live in Beaufort)  i believe it is under the counties comprehensive health program a nurse practicioner in your local health department should point you in the right direction .. hang in there darlin and also try komenlowcountry.org and explain your circumstances  if they cant do it i bet they know someone who can
best of prayers for you
