fibroadenoma 6 month follow-up - another lump?

Hi,

 

I had a lump and achy pains in left lump in Jan 22, the results came back as benign. 
 

Now, 6 months later I had my follow up and scan has showed more little lumps and 1 large lump 2cm x3cm which I had biopsy for and I am awaiting results. There is no pain or changes in my breast. But I am starting to freak out.

 

has anyone had anything similar? What are the chances of being cancer?

 

I did have a fibroadenoma removed a few years ago due to its size. Also the original fibroadenoma from January has not increased in size, I just have 4 more little ones and this bigger one? 
 

thanks 

  • Hello Pkhya and welcome to Cancer Chat, 

    I am sorry to hear that your follow up and scan has showed more little lumps and a large lump. It's reassuring though that the lump you had in January 2022 turned out to be fibroadenoma and that the results came back benign. I hope that this will be the case again and I am keeping everything tightly crossed for you. 

    Waiting for results is really difficult as many of our members will know only too well. It is a time when our mind goes into overdrive and it's easy then to anticipate the worst. There are helpful tips on this page to help you cope while waiting for important news and I hope it won't be long now before you get your biopsy results. While you are waiting, try if you can to stay away from the temptation of looking things up online as this will only make you feel more anxious. 

    I hope that you will hear from others who have been through something similar and that they will share their experience with you. 

    Keeping everything crossed for you that it all turns out to be benign once again!

    Best wishes,
