    This past Monday I had 3 very large complex cysts aspirated as well as a core needle biopsy for a mass (still waiting for the result).  This morning in the shower it felt like one of the cysts has returned.  How is this even possible?  I was JUST aspirated this past Monday morning?  I am calling my doctor, but was curious if this is normal to come back this fast?  Or maybe I'm feeling the mass?

    I am not certain how to answer your question. Have you received a response from your Dr? I have one "supposed" complex Cyst and or "Node". They did not recommend aspiration. Repeat testing in 6 months. I am having another radiologist look at my results. Not 100% comfortable as I have heard from others, the only way to tell for sure is to biopsy.

    Hi,  well looks like it is possible. I go back to my surgeon next week and we talk surgery or radiation because this cyst just doesn't want to go away.  the mass was tissue from the cyst which ruptured at one point.

    It was aspirated last Monday and it's already back and feels like it's growing every day.  I read the same thing, aspiration is not 100% because you can miss cells.  I will know more on my next visit.  I do know that my cysts are very painful.  do you have pain?

    I had a complex cyst in my left breast.  It was clearly a cyst on the ultrasound (it looked like a grape cluster).

    The cyst did not cause me any pain and I didn't know it was there util the mammogram, compression mammogram, and ultrasound found it.

    I did eventually have a simple mastectomy of the left breast because of other issues.
