Last week, I found a small pea size lump in my left forearm. Doesn't hurt, move etc... I made an apt to go see my Dr. Then, on Saturday, I found a lump in my right breast.
Yesterday, I went to my apt with my Dr, and he told me that the lump in my arm is most likely a cyst, to keep an eye on it, and if it gets bigger or moves, to go back and see him. He then did a breast exam, and said that the lump in my breast is "sitting at 11 o'clock". He said he think this is a cyst as well. . If the lump is still there next month or gets bigger, he is going to send me for a mammogram. EEIK.
My question is, has anyone gone though this before? Is this something I should be concerned about? Do they go away on their own or do they have to be removed?
I am starting to freak out a little bit. My husband says not to worry, but it isn't his breast!
Any advice or suggestion would be great!
Thanks
