What were your symptoms? Im scared

Crystalred, my heart goes out to you. It is scary. Please understand a couple of things, though. 

First, even if you found out that another woman had the very same symptoms as you, it would not mean that her diagnosis was the same as yours.

Second, you really and truly can't be diagnosed over the internet. The women here aren't medical professionals, and even if they were they wouldn't be able to tell you what's going on.

Third, and possibly the most important -- we live in a very PinkWashed World. We've been trained to believe that everything that happens to our breasts is breast cancer. But the truth is that all sorts of things happen to breasts -- lumps, discharge, pain, etc. -- that are not cancer. The majority of lumps are not cancer. The majority of instances of discharge, even bloody discharges, are not cancer. 

The good thing about PinkWashing is that it causes many women to get annual mammos who might not. But the bad thing about PinkWashing is that it makes women afraid when anything at all happens to their breasts.

So: be a person who's been influenced by PinkWashing in the good way -- get yourself checked out! But try not to be the person who's influenced in the bad way -- into being scared to death.

And let us know how it all goes! 

ONLY symptom was nipple color change over time. Ob/gyn said it was likely from longterm breastfeeding but sent me  for a routine, now ur 40 yo mammogram the very next month. No palpable  lump, discharge or anything. Found loads of DCIS on routine mammogram. Nipple color change indicative of Paget's disease per pathology. Glad I didn't put off my mammogram! Waiting is the hardest part but with this disease if I learned ANYTHING new it was patience. All the best to you.

Crystal,

The night sweats, fatigue and headache actually sound more like a thyroid or hormone problem. Have you seen your pcp? Maybe he/she could run a full blood panel on you to see if that's what is causing those symptoms.  

I had an existing lump, diagnoses as fibrocystic.  It got bigger and had a burning sensation.  Then it dimpled at the nipple.

I was only 28 yo when I had bloody discharge from my nipple.  It really freaked me out!  Due to incompetence on the part of our local country surgeon, (oh yeah, I also had a baby and nursed him for 15 months) it was 2 1/2 years later that I had the much larger lump removed.  The Dr. who did the surgery thought it was cancer when he took it out.  He called me 3 days later to say the pathology came back B9!  What I had was papilloma (warts) in the milk ducts. 

I had a green discharge for three years. Then in the end of summer 2010, the discharge turned bloody. In the end of October 2011, I felt a breakfast sausage like lump.
