cysts in healthy breast

I have been telling MD's for month now that my non-cancer breast did not feel right, that there were areas that hurt, and my nipple was sensitive. I felt that MD's considered this a manifestation of anxiety after having cancer in the other breast.

I had a second MX and the surgeon called to tell me that the breast was cancer-free. I went online for the report: I am extremely happy that cancer was not mentioned, of course, but am curious what this means:

"Multiple possible cysts filled with tan-green material and measuring 0.3-0.5 cm in greatest dimensions are observed located lower-centrally behind the nipple."

For one thing this certainly validates the sensations I was having. But why the "possible?" What does the "tan-green material" mean? I have a call in to the surgeon to find out if further testing is being done, assuming cancer is not even remotely possible, but still want some explanation.

Has anyone else had something like this in a report?
