Hi just looking for some advice really.
I have had a few health issues recently weight loss pelvic and stomach pain and my breast have seemed to completely disappear packed up and left 😂

But most recently I have had some breast pain and upon checking I felt what I thought was a thickening of the right breast. So I left it a while to see if it changed with my cycle 2 months or so pasted and I noticed it started to get a bit bigger in size and felt hevy compared to the left breast so I showed it so a female relative who suggested I get it checked out. I got an appointment with my gp last week who has referred me to the breast clinic and I was quite shocked when she said there was 3 breast lumps in my right breast A 1 inch lump at the 6 o'clock position a 1 inch at 8oclock and a palpable mass at the 10 o'clock. I never really noticed them so don't know when they appeared but seem to grown quite quickly the last few months its not really pain as in constant pain more so when I bend over I get a shooting pain from the nipple to the armpit. Any similar experiences would be helpful thanks

How could I have a 3 inch lump and not noticed until it was pointed out 🤦‍♀️

Sweetie, I have no advice for you as I haven't been in the exact position, my doctor found a lump that I didn't feel, she sent me for ultrasound and mammogram, all fine, it was cyst that they need to monitor every few years, I lost weight also at that time, had lots going on, it wasn't connected but you think all sorts. Just want you to know that you are not alone and I am thinking of you. I'm keeping you in my thoughts. 💕💕💕💕

My best friend has cysts too and also gets shocked how many more the doctors feel when she finds 1. It's scary but cysts are common. Apparently my BF had a scan a few years ago and they found loads of cysts, I think 40 or 50, and she could only feel 1, doctors could feel a fair few on the outside, but she was quite shocked there were so many on the ultrascan. She gets painful ones drained and the rest are just there really

Good luck

3” ? That’s nothing. I’m currently recuperating from the removal of a 7” one! The histology is entirely benign but it was causing me considerable pain and inconvenience with needing ultrasound guided draining every 6 weeks. It was a complex cyst with papilloma. I have another 2 lesions which are still in situ but are benign as well and I’ve already had 3 previous ones removed. I’ve lost count of how many ordinary cysts I’ve had and one of those was huge but I had no idea it was there. It was only found as I was having a smaller cyst I had spotted checked out.

I know it’s easy to say but don’t jump to the worst conclusions. The wait though is awful and I do feel for you.
