Hi everyone ❤️
I'm 39 and on monday I found at round slightly moveable lump near my left nipple - I went to get it checked on Thurs and I know this sounds so dramatic but I feel a bit traumatised even though it was good news. So two docs felt the lump and arranged a mammogram, the radiographer then did a ultrasound and show me the cyst I felt on screen, he said it seemed like a couple of cysts grouped together and he also saw another one deeper down- he said he would want to see if the fluid would come out so put a needle in both - he said if all the fluid came out he would just throw it away but as it didn't he said it might bit thicker or with debris in it so he would need to test it for abnormal cells. He then brought me to a quiter waiting room where I silently crapped myself - 20 MINS later he came back and said it was good news and I was brought back to the Consultant who said test Confirmed it was a benign cyst and no need for further checks. Initially I was relieved but my health anxiety has kicked in and now I'm going over everything they said and wondering why it wouldnt drain and worrying its a bad sign and will come back and I'll constantly need to be on high alert. I'm being a bit of an irrational Baby I know - need to shake it off but finding it hard atm. Just wondering if anyone has words of wisdom or a similar experience?
