Okay, so I was having all this discharge from the breasts, went to gyn, they did cultures, mammogram etc. Everything came out just fine. She told me to wait and see and call if anything changed or the discharge did not stop in 4 weeks.

Suddenly, over the last few days one side has stopped the discharge and the other has enlarged a lot and is very, very painful with slightly different discharge. Called the Gyn, was told they would set me up with a referral to a breast surgeon next week. Arggg. I am in pain and frustrated. Google tells me nothing.

Hope you take this the right way, but here is hoping it is *just* and infection of some sort and you are fine after a regimen of antibiotics. Keep us informed, you are in my prayers!

(((((((hugs))))))) Did your dr. give any ideas for what it could be? I would be hesitant google much because the options could be benign (infection or cyst) or potentialy very, very scary (IBC).

Many prayers and good vibes headed your way. It's good to be going to a specialist quickly and not fart around with folks who won't know how to handle it.... my best to you!

Thanks guys, a very good friend of mine also happens to be an ob/gyn turned SAHM, she has been my rock the last few days. She is going to keep DD for all the appts and help me make sense of everything.

Your support is great. Thank you. :cheerleader1:

It's a good thing you're going straight to the expert so you can know sooner.. :grouphug: I hope it's just an infection.

I hope you get some answers soon and it's nothing too serious. Do you have any enlarged lymph nodes under the arm, above the collarbone or below the collarbone? Dimpled skin or flattening or turning inward of the nipple?

Nothing but pain swelling and green/yellow thick discharge. The pain is really deep, almost against the ribcage.

Hopefully I can put this all behind me soon.

Thanks guys.
