25 and possible fibroadenoma / cancer??

Hi all, 

I'm just wondering what people's experiences are of fibroadenomas turning cancerous? I had my first breast biopsy done today (07/02) and just wondering what people's experiences were like of getting their test results? Mine has grown another 3 - 4cm in the last 2 week's and has been there now for 6 weeks. 

Plus I think I'm being extra paranoid as there is a big family history of cancer just on my mum's side alone ... I don't talk to my dad's side much purely because I can't stand the man.

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated x

  • Hi there, I'm in a similar position, I am 30 years old and found a hard lump in my left breast. On Monday the 4th I had an ultrasound which should a solid lump so they took a biopsy and said it looks like a fibrodenoma but they have to make sure. So I'm worried if it could be something worse too as wouldn't they be able to tell just from the ultrasound? 

    So I have no advice to give you only that I'm in the same boat, they said they will ring with results within 2 weeks. So I'm just hoping they ring soon 

  • @Kylie44 this is exactly the same thing.  I  was told results in a week  but I'm struggling as I know this is  worrying my mum as well but I'm struggling to keep my mind off it xx

  • Did they say what size yours was? I was watching them measuring it but didn't think to ask.

    Does yours move around or is it fixed? If I press on mine it wiggles around. It's feel by touch probably a bit bigger than a grape.

    She wrote on her notes on the computer clinically fibrodenoma, sent the biopsy off and didnt really say any more and I didn't ask. 

    I have another appointment for 3 months time to watch the growth. 

  • It is mobile but only a little. When I was first referred my GP said it was roughly 1cm , when I had my ultrasound they said it was roughly 5cm without me asking. It is mobile but it's very painful at the minute cos they biopsied it whilst I was there. I'm waiting on my consultant for hematology to give the go ahead for my surgery and then I'm also waiting on a surgery date x
