    I had a tennis ball size tumor with many positive lymph nodes. I felt nothing and did

    monthly breast exams. Mine was breast cancer, however, I have heard of women

    with benign conditions with these same symptoms.

    Sending all my best to you as you wait.

    MinnieM - oh yes it is a waiting game. What tests have you had? Have you been biopsied yet?

    Minnie:

    I'm so sorry you're having to go through this. We all remember those stressful/waiting/testing times.

    Thinking of you and hoping the news next week is good.
