Breast cyst

Hi 

 

I'm just wanting some advise from anyone similar situation, I've found lump had breast pain and shadowing bruise on the side as well. My mum had breast cancer at 51 (2yrs ago) my nan at 74 (5yrs ago) her sister in between and also my great nan, al we have a strong family history. 
in August 2014 I found a lump in right breast which turned to be fatty lump, this time feels diff and had consults over phone due to covid then a ultrasound was organised same day. The doctor didn't exam me just did ultra sound asked few questions said pain was pulled chest wall and lump was 5mm cyst.

no mention of follow up biopsy, needle aspiration or anything I'm still anxious I'm 37 mum of 2 one which is 14yr old daughter and it's going 3 generations already I can't start mammograms till I'm 40 and no one offering baracca 1/2 test

  • My wife had breast cancer and hers was HER2 (She's only 34). She had lump in her breast and when she had a ultrasound it came back as a cyst, she asked for a mammogram and it came back fine. She then demanded another scan with a different nurse, they found they cancer hiding behind the cyst. I would ask for another opinion personally, another mammogram and ultrasound. If it wasn't for the nurse who found the cancer behind the cyst, it would have been a  different scenario alltogether.

     

    This is your health and your body, you have every right to ask for another opinion. My wife new deep down something is wrong. Go with your gut.

    I really do hope you get some answers but don't feel bad for asking again, it's your health at the end of the day.

     

    Kind Regards,

  • Sorry to add, but you should ask for a biopsy, better for your own mental health also to rule it out. 

     

    I hope it turns out to be nothing but better to be safe.

     

    Kind regards,
