AnswerDear Anne, without an examination it is unfortunately impossible to get any further in order to help you. So my advice to you is to let a dr. (probably best an internist) check you thoroughly! Since your breasts are lumpy I STRONGLY SUGGEST that your future mammograms should always be complemented with breast MRI scans and ultrasound scans and whenever anything is uncertain in ANY of these procedures a needle biopsy of it should be performed! Good luck!
