Nipple Discharge

Posted by mcyr0 @mcyr0, Aug 26, 2023

I’m new here. Hi. Also very nervous and looking for some truthful feedback. Everyone is just telling me what they think I want to hear. I was hoping that maybe someone on here can speak to their experience if it’s similar to mine, and what could potentially be the cause. Google and Med Journals have said a lot. But I’d like feedback from an actual person.

To preface, I’m newly 35. Only breastfed for maybe a combined total of one month between all three of my children. Youngest is 9, so those days have been long gone. No trauma to the breast and not causes by stimulation. But I discovered bloody & clear nipple discharge recently in my left breast. I called my doc, got an appointment, and they sent me for a diagnostic mammo, followed by an ultrasound if medically necessary. They did both forms of imaging and it came back with suspicious findings, not sure the official scoring. I had my breast biopsy yesterday, and now I’m just sitting in the fear of the waiting. Does this sounds familiar to anyone?

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Breast Cancer Support Group.

Me too, green discharge but it didn't happen until after I was diagnosed with cancer. I'm getting all the prep done now and starting chemo soon. I haven't talked to anyone about the discharge and won't until I see a surgeon next week. Fear is always with us. My sister just died of breast cancer that masticized to lungs and brain. Just take good care of yourself, and keep your appointments. That's all we can do. Stay close to those you love and who love you and get rid of anyone who is nasty. We can't afford the extra stress right now.

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

I went to the dr and she didn’t feel any lumps. I will be getting a mammo and ultrasound in a few weeks. Thank you for checking in.
