Was it only a cyst??????
Has anyone been told it is only a cyst and your gut told you to insist on biopsy and it turned out to not be a cyst .

Yep.
My lump that wasn't a lump because it wasn't there when someone else was looking it for turned out to be a lobular tumour the size of my thumb.
This was only discovered after 4 years when I'd lost ten kilos without trying in 12 months and insisted on surgical exploration. I was made to feel like a hysterical nuisance but if I hadn't have chucked a right wobbler about it I'd be dead now.
I think the little bell that rings in our heads when we think something is wrong should not be ignored.
