All the best to you, TLG, on your mammogram. Often they are benign and am hoping this is your case so you can get past this without this concern.

Please keep us updated,

Try to not let your mind race. They could be cysts, or maybe you are fighting some bug that has kicked a couple of lymph nodes into gear. Many CLL patients have scares about possible breast cancer because of lymph nodes, and many women deal with cysts. When I did, my doctor drained them so that they couldn't hide something else in the future. It's good that your doctor is being thorough.

👋 hello tic!

Yes there is always something with cancer but the good news is we are more aware of our body and hopefully can be treated. when was your last mammogram? Do the lumps hurt? any dimpling? Redness?

Hope it’s just a fibrocystic lump ( benign) drlauranurse.ca/blog/lumpy-...

I had a small lump removed in July 2017...it was cancer..then I was put on imbruvica and have had no lumps since this one popped up on my birthday....I have had lymphomas for over 2 years so am lucky to still be alive..time will tell..I will deal with it.

Yes our disease keeps us on edge. No doubt about it. But hopefully it won’t be anything too serious. Please keep us posted. I’ll be thinking of you.

Last year I found lumps on my breast too and had a mammogram done. In the end it wasn’t anything serious.

Hi,

Like several other people here I had a lumpectomy, which turned out to be benign. The waiting is stressful.

Wishing you well.
