I am currently having a panic attack. I have green nipple discharge, had it for years. Did an MRI/Ultrasound and nothing. Today I saw red when squeezing. How are you doing with your cancer? I’m so scared.

@pinky2640 I hope it’s not the case for you. I know when I did the MRI, they couldn’t see the primary in the breast as I had dense breast tissues. It showed up in my lymph nodes (stage II). My axillary lymphnodes were swollen before I went in for biopsy. I had started at one clinic (where they were still not finding the primary) and switched to Mayo. Surgeon at Mayo was able to find the primary in the breast. Knowing what I know now, I would push or maybe get 2nd opinion. Listen to your body. I would feel something is not right but unfortunately trusted the initial surgeon that shrugged it off.
Mine ended up being HER2+.
I’m doing good. Done with treatment, had mastectomy , chemo, radiation and now awaiting reconstruction which I had to postpone due to getting pneumonia couple times.
Best of luck to you. Don’t be afraid to take no for an answer. You have to advocate for yourself.

@pinky2640 i had green nipple discharge as well but the Dr was not concerned, especially if it was squeezed out. They’re mostly concerned with spontaneous clear or bloody discharge, but not if it was squeezed. That has been my experience. If you’re concerned, I’d be persistent and get it checked, again if needed. I hope this info helps and hugs to you! 🤗

@pinky2640, did you contact your doctor? How are you doing? Any further testing?
