For those who are experiencing symptoms or received concerning test results, but haven't been diagnosed with breast cancer.
Hi everyone, I’m 25F, mom of a 5-year-old, and I’m really anxious about my breast health. I’ve already seen specialists but I’m still confused, so I wanted to ask if anyone has gone through something like this. Last year: I had an infection after a nipple piercing. There was pus and even some blood from the nipple milk…
Hello Yesterday I received a MRI w/wo contrast for both breast. I am high risk and haven't had an MRI since 2021 but had a mammo this past Feb '25, mammo/US Jan '24. I was surprised to get my report so quickly yesterday and then was like WHAT THE?! I have had many call backs on mammo/US over the years and have had ALH…
I had a new focal asymmetry on screening mammogram back in March. I got called back and the asymmetry was still visible on mammogram, although it was smaller because of being compressed. It was not present on ultrasound. They said to go back in 6 months. So, I went back today and got a normal result. (Yay, so relieved!)…
Hi, I just went through a 3-D mammogram, then a call-back mammogram and US and then a 6-month follow-up mammogram. The 6-month follow-up was normal—BI-RADS 1 negative. So, I was very, very relieved. But I was extemely anxious before the normal findings on the 6-monht follow-up. The tech mentioned in passing that many…
My maternal grandmother survived breast cancer back in the 1970s. (She died at 106 yrs about 15 yrs ago) . My sister is a breast cancer survivor (over 10 years now). It didn't happen to my mom. My father's half sister never got it. Mammogram found two somethings suspicious in my left breast, follow up ultrasound confirmed…
I keep reading that the markers 'can stay in the body indefinitely'. Does anyone reallly know if there are safety issues involved? Can they migrate further into the tissue after a period of time? Can they cause infections down the road? After all it's a foreign object in the body I would think it would cause a reaction…
In April I went for a diagnostic mammogram of my left breast. The radiologist had several mammography pictures taken and also a magnifying mammography round of pictures taken. He stated that they found an Indeterminate 6 mm group of tight calcifications in the outer breast at middle depth and that a stereotactic guided…
Hi: Mammogram showed Subcentimeter focal asymmetry 6cm behind nipple. Had a nipple infection and showed dermatologist. She did not seem concerned. Yellow or white discharge. It cleared. I was sleeping in bra every night and it started to cause problems, so I stopped. I just noticed like a whitehead on my nipple. I was at…
Hello, i am 21 years old. Today i felt a lump about the size of marble on my right breast and then when i grabbed it and held it properly it felt much bigger - about the size of a tennis ball - . If i try and squeeze or push it, i can move the lump along to the left or right, or up or down. Its literally feels like theres…
I am so anxiety filled. I am very high risk and haven't had a mammogram for 10 years so I'm 100% sure they are going to find something. I am terrified of the outcome. It consumes most of my time if I'm not keeping myself busy. I am working with a therapist and that seems to be helping a little. I guess no matter what the…
