Hello all,

I'm 31 and wanted to share my story as I'm absolutely terrified right now in the waiting. For about 2-3 months I've noticed breast pain, like a dull ache with sometimes sharp shooting pain in one area. Went to my gynecologist who felt and did not feel a lump, nor did I. Fast forward and just last weekend, I felt a small pea sized lump deeper in my chest. Almost felt like a small bullet or something around the '6 o clock' area of my chest.

I went in yesterday to have my mammogram and ultrasound. Mammogram was good, but once we went into the ultrasound she said she did see the mass and that it wasn't a cyst. (My heart sank, I had my fingers crossed for that one.) She said she's pretty sure it's a fibroadenoma and that I could either watch it for 6 months to look for growth, or get a biopsy. Well naturally I want a biopsy to get my mind right, but I'm sick to my stomach over this waiting and wondering. I've already envisioned the worst case scenario, cry almost every hour of the day, and feel so hopeless that I'm now a step closer to whether or not it's cancer. I just wanted to leave the clinic with a cyst, peace of mind and be on my merry way.

Any and all help would be so appreciated!
