Waiting aspiration
Hi there.
A couple of weeks ago I lifted my arm and noticed a dimple in the left breast. I knew it wasn't good and felt a decent size lump immediately. I panicked as anyone would and rushed for a mammogram and ultrasound which suggest a cyst on ultrasound and mass on mammogram. I'm having it fully aspirated next week and still very concerned it could be bad news. I also have quite bad swelling around the same side collarbone. I am sorry that this is nothing compared to what many are going through but just needed to let out my fears. Bless you all.

Thank you so much and the cyst had refilled around 75% and that was in around 15 hours after it was done. The dr is happy to re check in six months. I'm thinking if it persists and gets to 100% refilled I'll look at having it surgically removed.

Thinking of you x
Due to the fluid being clear it was disposed of. I'll keep you posted and hopefully this can no longer be felt by Monday morning. I'm going through enough with getting Lymphoma ruled out. X

Were they sending anqy of tahe fluid for testing? That may also give some answers. Thinking of you, Lyn
Thank you so much and I was well looked after. It was fully aspirated but I can feel it back in less than 16 hours. I'm scared as to what that means and don't know what to think. They're doing another ultrasound on Monday afternoon. Xx

Good to hear they aren't just guessing and are doing all the tests possible to get the big picture of what is going on. Hoping you get really good nurses. There are some around. :)

Stay in touch. Will be thinking of you,

Tomorrow is the day and if that's not enough I'm now having tests to rule out lymphoma. I'm terrified of tomorrow and what my current future holds. Ready for breaking down.
Thank you so much and I will continue to ask questions, I will also definitely update once results are in. I am extremely anxious as there's a strong chance I carry a cancer gene.
- lrb_03MemberHi, good on you for recognising a change and following it up. Your fears are real, don't minimise them. keep us up to date on how you are going, and results etc. Ask questions any time. Take care, Lyn
