Hi everyone I had a biopsy around nipple as I was getting blood strained nipple discharge. The dr said you will get the result on wednesday more likely its intraductual papilloma. I am alot worried as I am only 32 year old did anyone experience that and what will be next step after that.
Kind regards
Hi Sarahjam welcome to the forum and sorry to hear how worried that you are.
I dont know a great deal about what they have suggested this might be, but if it is as they think, then it is a benign condition of the breast and not breast cancer. That said they usually do like to remove them as they are causing you problems.
When all is said and done they will not know for certain exactly what this is until the biopsy results are back, as these results will direct what happens next.
Sorry not to be able to help more but hopefully that helps a little during the wait.
Hi I do get alot of breast pain under my armpit.whts the cause of this???
Hi Sarahjam
It’s more than likely to do with your biopsy. If you are concerned about it mention it when you go to your appointment on Wednesday.
Best of luck.

Hi
Sorry I have no experience of intraductual papilloma. When I had my biopsies done I also had a clip inserted and I was told that it could stay there forever if no cancer was found but if cancer was found then they would remove the clip along with the cancer when operating. Try not to worry too much or over think things as you will imagine alsorts. You will have your answers in a few days. Take care, stay calm, cry when you need to but stay strong x
