if you can go to the dr. with your wife. ya'll should try and not panic or anything first!!! it depends on the type of cyst it is also. some are filled with fluid and can be drained, some are solid and "may" have to have a biopsy or removal. talk to her dr. and find out what kind and all the options. they may want to scan it also.
take care, and i pray all works out for ya'll!!!

You sound like a very caring husband. Your wife is lucky to have you.
Offer to go with her to her next doctor's appointment, and don't be afraid to ask questions. Follow the doctor's advice on what to do next.
I'm guessing a biopsy of the cyst is in order. A biopsy is not a big deal, just an office visit really, but she'll probably need to go out for ice cream afterwards. Cysts are relatively harmless, and if the biopsy doesn't show anything bad, they might chose to leave it there if it's not painful. If they do find something questionable, then they'll want to remove it and do more tests. Be prepared for alot more testing.
While you are waiting for her next appointment, just do something to help her relax.....yoga is great, it's finally perfect weather for camping & fishing, get some more beads for her beadwork, whatever she likes. Cut the stresses in your lives back to a mild roar and just focus on each other until you know more.
Good luck.

A cyst could be several things. Definitely go see a doctor, I chose my ob/gyn! If it's hard and not movable, that's not good. If it's kinda rubbery feeling and can be pushed around easily, it's usually harmless. I had the latter which is called a fiber adenoma which is luckliy harmless. I had it removed then they did a biopsy. The scar is a little bigger than I expected but still not bad...maybe an inch long and 1/2 inch wide. It's scary when you don't know what it is, so the sooner you get in, the better!

Your wife must make an appointment with her doctor. She needs to get her breast checked immediately. Time is of the essence. This may not be cancer, but don't take a chance. Provide her with strength and support. Bless you both.

Get her to a doctor first. Comfort her, tell her you'll always be there for her. Tell her often how beautiful she is and that you love her. Nothing is more comforting than fore you to hold her and whisper all the things that are wonderful about her. If it's cancer, go to discoveryhealth.com. it's a wonderful website that shows you exactly what's happening to her and helps you understand what is going on. Best wishes.

don't freak out, its probably nothing big like cancer. cysts are usually caused by too much sugar or caffeine. if she cuts back on those things, it will probably go away.
