Default Lump in my breast. Yes men do get them too.
I had an physical yesterday and the doctor found a lump in my breast. It's been kind of painful which is good because she said cancer most of the time does not cause painful lumps. So tomorrow I go and have a mammogram and ultrasound to see what's up. I would appreciate your prayer and positive thoughts.

On a good note she is going to send me to have an MRI for my back and hopefully be able to give me some treatments for some of the pain I am having.

Howie - I am so sorry! I know it will be nothing but it's hard to go through all the same. I'm thinking about you and praying for you. Good luck tomorrow with the mammogram and with the MRI.

Aw Howie, I'm so sorry you've got this scare! Your doc is right -- in this case, pain is a GOOD thing! I'm so glad you're treating it seriously and giving it the attention it -- and you -- deserve. My prayers will be with you and Kimberley tonight. Please let us know.....we'll all be worried about you, buddy.

Sending prayers and good vibes your way, Howie. I just went through this a few months ago. The lump is still there, but it's normal breast tissue. I pray yours will be the same. ((((hugs))))

The very best of wishes and luck for tomorrow, Howie; that all goes well with the mammogram and that the lump is just a minor irritation of some sort that can be taken care of easily. Good news about the MRI ~ it'll be great if they can finally find something to help with the back pain (I know that's been bothering you for awhile).

Do let us know how everything went and tell Kimberley to give you a huge hug big enough to be from all of us!

I have heard that pain is a GOOD thing when it comes to a lump like that - so that's a positive thing - perhaps a cyst. Still scary to hear "lump" - I know, BTDT. Good luck - I have faith that all will be well.
