Hi :) 

I am 33 and have had a fibroadenoma for 7 years. I have had 3 ultrasound on it over the years, the latest one the beginning of May when I was at the breast clinic for something else that was resolved in that visit. The ultrasound technician advised nothing concerning however because I am over 30 I was offered a biopsy for “reassurance purposes” - it is just under 2cm. Since then I received a call inviting me back in for a follow up which I was expecting, the lady on the phone advised that the consultant said they don’t want me to worry, they haven’t found anything concerning but they want me to go in to discuss removing it. 

I am just wanting to hear other people’s positive (if possible because I am anxious) experiences with having their fibroadenoma removed and the reasons why this was offered. Until my apt I won’t know if this is just an option or whether they strongly feel I should and if so why, which is causing a little worry.

Thank you
