Major update!!! Thanks ladies with the suport! Great news! My sonogram did not indicate a need for a biopsy! What I have been feeling is 3 lumps from oil filled cysts as a result of some fat grafting a year ago!! My plastic surgeon says usually this sort of thing happens in the first few months after a reconstruction! But I'll take it!! So SoCalGal, I might have one with a mind of its own too! Lol! Still as a precaution the fluid drawn out will be sent off for testing just to make sure! Whew!!! Now to research what might have triggered these cysts. Maybe I should lay off the caffeinated coffee!
