I have not needed to get my cysts biopsied yet..... but the docs tell me that it is a simply procedure, some feel discomfort while others do not.......the BEST advice I can give you is: follow what your doctors are telling you and if you have questions... ask and ask and ask till you are sure,.... I wrote down questions I wanted to ask before I went to see the doc., and may I suggest, take someone with you......2 sets of ears sure help in stressful times,  and again.. fibroadenomas are noncancerous cyst like growths...... to answer and help is why we are all here..... best wishes to you Neno and try to relax a bit............

Neno,         I've just been where you are now, I have been DX'd with multiple fibroadenomas bi-lat and after a mammogram and 4 ultrasounds and a magnifying mammo, all the doctors of my "team".... all state, from the Radiologist, to the Onco, to the Surgeon.....that are beign cyst like growths and usually nothing is done  unless they become painful......if any of your 'team' suggests a biop.  they need you to follow their advice.......I know it's hard, but try to relax a bit....... and diet.... eat as healthy as you can...and take that special  "time" for yourself!.......have faith and know we are here for you....... prayers ...... K.
