Post-menopausal complex cyst

I had a mammogram recently. It revealed a complex cyst in my left breast. My doctor is taking a conservative approach and is rescheduled a follow-up appt. for a diagonistic mammogram and ultrasound again in 6 months. Before all this happened and of course I did not tell the doctor... I have little "pains" under my left arm. I know lymph nodes are located in that area. The pains are nothing really...just my lymph "talking" to me. Now I am getting a strange bumps on my left breast. I thought perhaps soap or sweat is causing this....but my right breast is fine.  How strange.

Recently, I have been diagnoised with an enlarged ovary, fibroids, fluid in my fallopian tube and a cyst. I have cronic back aches, pelvic pain, bloating and pressure. I told my doctor my legs ache and she told me I was getting old.

Early morning is the best time. As soon as I eat my breakfast I begin to get worse. I feel not quite  nauseous but feeling as if I have been standing behind a bus for an hour breathing carbon monoxide. As the day wears on I have more and more pain. It is hard for me to believe all these symptoms are not realted to each other in some way. Does any one have anything that relates to my experiences?

I can't really see any connection between the breast cyst and your other vague complaints. Perhaps it's time for a complete Physical Exam and some detailed discussion with either your personal Physician or an Internal Medicine Specialist regarding these problems. I might add that it is always VERY important that you tell your Dr. everything .... no matter how small it seems. There is also the  possibility that you are stressing over the breast issue and bringing about some of these other problems. It might be wise to ask your Dr. if you could proceed to some conclusion regarding the breast cyst and lessen the concerns you may be having.   Kindest regards .....
