NWR - Question Regarding Cysts
Hi, so I just got back from doing an echo of my boobs and apparently I have cysts. Obviously the tech couldn´t tell me much. I just saw on the screen taht there were dark spots and hounded her about them. It turns out on the right side I have one large one and two or three small ones and on the left side I have a few small ones. I was able to get a GYN appt for Monday night but I feel like I need to tell someone.
I can´t tell FH because he was at the place with me (he had to get a Xray) and while we were waiting there was a woman who looked like she had cancer and wasn´t doing too well. At the same time the news started showing a piece of children with cancer. His dad was diagnosed with cancer and died within a couple of months. (Christimas Day!! 2006) and seeing that stuff gets him down. He always assumed the worse with medical things so I know if I tell him he´ll automatically be worried. I figured I´ll wait to talk to my gyn on monday and then tell him.
My question is has anyone had this? Do they have to cut you open to do a biopsy or something? I think I heard of something being done with a needle but I´m actually very ignorant in this area!! I´m a little worried because my grandmother had breast cancer but I´m remaining positive because she is now fine with no recurrences years later!!! and my mother had cysts that turned out to be nothing.
i was debating telling my mom but she´s a little stressed right now because we just found out my sister is pregnant and won´t be able to come to the wedding because she is due the same week!! She lives in Florida and my mom has to be there for her but obviously for my wedding too. I´d rather not put more on her plate right now.
I realize this is becoming long (as many of my posts do - sorry!!) so I will stop now. Any info you have about this would be greatly appreciated. I was thinking of searching online but I may end up stressing myself out more that way.
Thanks
