my report says, nonproliferative fibrocystic change with apocrine metaplasia and focal areas of sclerosing lobular hyperplasia.

    That's something your doctor really should have explained to you; it'd be best if you give them a call and ask if you can either make an appointment to go over it or have a nurse call you back to go over it.

    But, a quick Google search says:

    Aporcine metaplasia is "associated with a variety of breast cystic disorders" but does not raise the risk of cancer.

    Sclerosing lobular hyperplasia is a type of benign tumor and not associated with a risk of malignant cancer.
