Hello,

Just got my lab results today and they thankfully came back benign, however, I am still concerned about lump since it is at least 4 cm. Dr did not have much of a follow-up plan other than keep an eye on it. If it gets bigger go back sort of thing. I guess you can say I am concerned as 4cm is pretty big and will a biopsy totally rule out cancer on a bigger lump?

Back story, I noticed a lump about a yr ago but never got it checked out as I figured it was a clogged milk duct. I was about to have a baby. Well 1 yr later and still have the same lump but now my nipple on that breast has inverted. After 4 mammograms and 2 utrasounds, an aspiration was attempted but Dr said there seemed to be more of a mass than just simply fluid. He was able to get out a little a bit of fluid (but struggled to), milky bloody to the look. But Dr was surprised to see that he could not get what he thought was a galactocele to drain. So he went ahead and did a biopsy. Biopsy came back benign, which is a good thing. And again classified lump as a galactocele. Just curious if anyone else has has more of a mass like galactocele or tissue like galactocele? Thank you!
