Intraductal Papilloma

I was diagnosed with Intraductal Papilloma and the sample shows (right word?) 'florid'. The nurse told me that it was perfectly acceptable to wait 6 months and go back for another ultrasound. I was wondering what other have done. I have had breast cycts in the past and have never had cancer. I have a tendency to 'grow things' (ie. thryroid, ovaries all have cysts/tumors) in the past. None were ever cancer. Because of all I have been though I am not anxious to head to the nearest OR. Please reply with any advice or suggestions.

I have had ovarian cysts and breast cysts too. Its possible my daughter had what you have. Her ultrasound showed nothing, but she had some bleeding, yet it was red on her breast, yet didnt come off on her finger. What tests have you had for that problem- thanks

I went to a doctor for a 2nd opinion and was told that protocol at the second hospital was to have it removed.

Hi Robyn, I don't have any advice for this, but I DO want to let you know that I am here to offer you support.

I had a breast lump out about 5 years ago and was told that although it was benign, I DID have atypical hyperplasia. The surgeon was concerned that this would turn to cancer. So far, nothing. I do worry about it though.
Again, we all care here, so keep us posted..
Blessings..

EllaBlue - thanks. I don't have atypical anything, (the biopsy came back fine. The new doctor said that they were interested in the cells around the papilloma. That there is a 10 pecent chance they could be cancerous. But that with my background (all the cysts, on HRT, and DES exposed) she would suggest sugury.

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
