Breast bumps and lumps

Would love anyone to share stories of finding lumps in their breasts.
I’m 41, mother of 3 and recently found out I have masses in both breasts and a swollen axillary lymph node.
Awaiting to have biopsies but would like some real stories on what diagnoses you ended up with. TIA.

Edit- I have had an ultrasound and mammogram which showed 2cm masses in both breasts, one breast having 2 seperate masses and another mass in my lymph node. Doesn’t appear to be a cyst.

Could be anything really. Please don’t google or ask these things on public forums the responses will make the anxiety so much worse. If ur in Brisbane I can recommend a really amazing ultrasound group where the dr there will consult with u and give u the facts of what she thinks there and then. Good luck and I hope u get a good outcome!

I recently found a lump that was also painful especially just before my period. I’m 40 and had a mammogram and ultrasound and it turned out to be a cyst that was drained with a fine needle. After the draining it was immediately gone. I now will go for yearly checkups at a breast specialist clinic in Melbourne. They were fantastic.
