I havent read any of the other comments, so i dont know if any one has answered with this same answer yet or not.
But i have had a lump in my breast for two and a half years now. I got an ultra sound done on it about two years ago. and it came back as nothing there. but i knew there was pain there, but i figured they were right so i just ignored it. Then over the past two years it had grown, but for about a year and a half it has stayed the same size. ( one inch I found out today)
It gives me pain from here to there, and painful to the touch, or any type of pressure right on to the area.
So about 3 weeks ago i decided to get more answers, because they obviously weren't right.
I went to my surgeon. he told me it felt like a cyst. but i knew he was wrong because cysts move. My lump is solid, not liquid, and does NOT MOVE. it is deff attached, i could tell this on my own i touch it everyday by habbit. So he sent me to get a ultra sound two days ago. She told me it was a lymphnode. Today i went back to the surgeon, and he said he was wrong and that the ultra sound shows it is NOT a cyst ..BIG SURPRISE..ive been saying this for a years now. BUT he told me there is no way it is a lymph node. Lymphnodes come and go..and usually means an infection,( sorta like the ones in your throat area during the winter) He said theres no way its a lymph node because it has been there for over 2 years and hast gone down in size.
So he has sugested that i get it taken out. I'm going to have them do a biopsy on it afterwards. So in my opinon, I WOULD not ignore it, and get more tests done, or even talk to a surgeon, because my ultra sound tech told me wrong, and if i hadnt of gone back to my surgeon today, i would be sitting here thinking it was perfectly normal, and i didnt need surgery...once again
Well, i hope this has helped. I wouldnt ignore it!!...I mean i'm only 20 and i have the same problem, it could be possible they are wrong, and it kinda sounds like they are, especially if it persists more then months!!!!! Because my surgeon just told me a lymp node doesnt last long in that area, and that it is usually un common for the breast to have a swollen lympnode anyways.
