I had a surgery to remove a lump in 2014 and after the surgery doctor said it was a "non cancerous cyst". Just recently 2/16/2016 the lump came back even more painful then the first time. I was unable to see the specialist at the time due to the weekend so i went to the ER hoping to get some pain relive. but no use i had burning itching bee sting like pain in my chest the 2nd time around i had gross yellowish discharge comming from the incision area which rupter on its own(so gross) it slowly went down in swelling till it was almost gone again so to say but then again on 3/6/2016 the pain burning stinging feeling started to arise again for another couple of days.

The 2nd and 3rd time the pain came back in the breast i also had pain in my armpit and going straight down my tummy. A very sore feeling.

Im just wondering now if it really is a cyst or something else. My grandmother(mom's mom) is a breast caner survivor. And my aunt (dad's sis)died of breast cancer. It runs on both sides of my family so the concen has always been there and ive always been told im high-risk.

Im curently waiting to see a second doctor/specialist because the one i had been seeing wasnt telling me anything that was going on with my body and left breast. Seeing as he failed to tell me he thinks it may now be a disease according to the notes that were left on my last visit.

    We are sorry to here what you re experiencing. Have you considered, or had, genetic testing? It could be important to understand the relationship to what you are experiencing with the familial experience. A second opinion may also be adviable at this juncture.
