Sorry my bad english.

when squeezing my right nipple it will become discharge, clear looking but on white paper its yellow-little bit green.

In this breast i feel sometimes little pain, tingle. I dont feel any lumps, all time poking my breasts.

Is there any hope this is not cancer? Any experience.

I feel hopeless and that i die soon.

on Monday i have mammo+ultra..

Cannot eat, do nothing. Only google google...

    No need to be hopeless. I know you're scared and upset, but this does not mean you're going to die soon. In fact, clear, yellow, and green discharge is usually means NOT cancer.

    Breasts can have lots of benign (not cancer) lumps, bumps, bruises, discharges, and rashes. You don't say how old you are, but these things are very common in young women. And if you are under 40 your risk of breast cancer is very small, around 1-2%.

    You the doing all the right things, except one--stay off of Google. There is a lot of wrong information there and most of it won't apply to you anyway. It WILL make you feel crazy, though.

    I know how frightening this is for you, Sippis. It could be an infection or other benign conditions, not cancer - but please have a doctor check it out. It's good that you have a mammogram scheduled soon. Be sure to tell the nurse or tech that you've had this symptom. Will you also tell your gynecologist? Try to avoid squeezing your breast as it can make it worse and cause you to worry more.

    I’ve said it before, google is awesome, love it, but it’s a double edged sword when it comes to any search on the word breast. You’re guaranteed to see the worst of the worst. If you can’t stop then at least try limit your searches to ‘benign causes of nipple discharge’. It’s rough waiting and do understand your worry. Try your best to keep as busy as possible over the weekend, keeping the stats in mind. The vast majority are not cancer. Let us know how things go on Monday. Hugs
