Hi everyone, I am new here. I had my screening mammogram on Nov 11 and the next week I was called because they found a mass at the 1 0’clock position of my left breast and now I have a diagnostic mammogram and US scheduled for tomorrow Nov 24. I have had 2 biopsies before that turned out to be fibroadenomas in my right breast but nothing since then and nothing ever noticed on the left side. I am a 43 year old mother of 4. I don’t know why I am more worried this time. I have had some other health things going on. Night sweats, issues with my ears, a feeling like milk is coming in though I haven’t been pregnant and my youngest child is 8. I occasionally have breast pain but I don’t really think anything of it. I didn’t even know I had a mass. I could not feel it. I have never been told I have ever had cysts. I do have very dense breasts. My BIRADS is 0 right now because I need more testing. I think I just need to vent to people that understand my anxiety. Thanks for listening.
