Question: Home Test!? How can you tell the difference between breat cancer & cyst!?
About 10 years or so ago I went to the doctor because my breasts were tender with little bumps under the skin!. The doctor said they were cyst!. He told me to stop consuming caffeine!. So I did, and they went away!. About 6 years ago I had implants put in!. And about 2 years ago started having pain in my right breast!. I went to the doctor and they didn't find anything!. In the mean time I got on this Starbucks coffee kick and I don't know if the caffeine is causing this, but my right breast has been sore now for 2 months on the right side!. I now have bump the size of a penny on it as well!. So I have stopped consuming caffeine again now for about 4 days!. However the pain is increasing and the bump is getting bigger!. It feels like someone is stabbing my breast!. I don't have medical insurance either, I have no money, and I am scared and do not know what to do, any suggestions!?Www@Answer-Health@Com

Bell, you need a physical exam and a mammogram ASAP!. A rapidly growing bump and pain is at the very least a sign of infection anywhere on the body!. Try calling free clinics and the American Cancer Society for referrals to free or low cost mammograms in your area!. Good luck!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
Darlin if i were you I wouldn't be worried about your financial situation!. I would be going to a Dr and getting checked!.It could be another Cyst but it could also be from your implant leaking or even breast cancer!. Either way you NEED to see a Dr and get checked out!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
