Guest guest Posted June 10, 2000 Report Share Posted June 10, 2000 I want to mention that it is very dangerous to wait to get a lump checked out. Don't let any doctor tell you that you can't get a mammogram or ultrasound while breastfeeding. They are wrong. Go to a breast specialist. Any doctor who tells you to wait to get a lump checked out is jeopardizing his/her patients lives. It is worth it to get any lump checked out, if nothing else for the peace of mind!

He's not concerned because I wouldn't be in pain if it were something 'cancerous'>> Ok, well this scares me. I've had a lump in my breast that I'm pretty sure I've had(or been able to see since pg) and it doesn't hurt, but my ob said that any breast changes pg related or seemingly so they don't check. I may have to get a second opinion since it's remained or is it possible for a milk duct to remain partially blocked with a little lump like that and never get infected and painful(although early on, it may have been a little achy there if I remember) sigh ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Everyday Is Kid's Day Dad Only Has One Click Here To Make It Special http://click./1/5038/0/_/410002/_/960632445/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Give the Gift of Life Breastfeed! http://www.lactivist.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
