Granulomatous mastitis

Hi

I was diagnosed with granulomatous mastitis 23rd January 2022 after 22 aspirations all the antibiotics you could think of part of my boob taken away, steriods and methotrexate none of these worked.

I was so fed up and tired of living with this that I was going to go private and have a macestomy.

After speaking to my surgeon I was able to have it done under the NHS.

To some people it may seem a little bit drastic but I was at the hospital every week nothing was working and i wanted my life back.

I'm only in second week of recovery but hoping all goes well.

  • Hi. 
    I hope you’re ok.

    i was diagnosed with this last year. It’s a horrible condition. Mine keeps coming back & I’m so fed up of being in pain, I feel like it rules my life. Some days I’m in too much pain or just too tired to even go out.

    any help or advice appreciated.

    take care
