So, I got my results the same appointment as my ultrasound scans. And I am told that I have many small Fibroadenoma thruout both my breasts but they are benign. I have to follow up in 6 months with more scans. She told me to get a mamogram now because only it can pick up on some cancers that an ultrasound cannot. I was against them. But.....ugh.

I am not sure what this means for me. There is TOO much information the web and I do not know what is true and what is not.

Has anyone had this result. If so, please tell me your experience. My mind is in meltdown mode. Like, do I remove my breasts to prevent any of these things from ever turning into cancer? I know this sounds extreme, but it is not like one Fibroadenoma mass was found and it can be removed. There were a lot. At least a dozen. I have very large breast on a small body and eventually I planned on getting a breast reduction. But have not even done a consultation. The doctor said that would mean a whole 'nother set of scans because some could be removed or some could move or it would change the entire landscape of my breasts.

Anyone?

This past week, I suddenly having a sharp piercing, stabbing pain in my left breast if I bend over. The pain is so severe, I nealy pass out. But - Only if I bend over. I am a small person with huge breasts (DD) I have no lumps, no changes in the feel or looks. No other symptoms. Just a sharp piercing pain. If I am sitting or moving, lifting my arms, doing normal things - there is no pain. I admit, when at home, I do tend to not wear supportive enough bras. But this is the first time I have had this kind of pain.

>>I do have an ultrasound scheduled - in 2 weeks. But my mind has convinced me that this is something horrible and I now have 2 weeks to torture myself.

I have squished and squeezed my left breast so much, I probably have bruised it now. Seriously. But I have done this feeling for lumps.

I have bent over a zillion times trying to locate the exact point of the piercing pain and it feels like it is super deep in. Could I have bumped it, strained it lifting something? Maybe, but I dont know.

Everything I read says breast cancer does not hurt. But here on Reddit I read BC patients saying that is a lie. There is no BC in my family at all.

Anyone experience this and think my mind is torturing me for no reason? Or is this an actual symptom of something severe?

Thank you in advance if anyone does respond.
