Hi all
I am 38 years old and went to breast clinic today with lump in my right breast. They did a mammogram and then a scan which showed lots of cysts in my right breast but the mammogram showed a large cyst in my left breast and the lady told me she thought it was a cyst too. How will I know in future when examining myself if it’s a cyst or not when I have so many?? I have an appointment to go back in 2 weeks and it does say that breast imaging is not 100%. Why do I have to go back if they are only cysts. Think I maybe over reacting. Does any one have any experiences the same that you could share with me.Thought once I got today done my mind would be calmer…thanks
