Do you mean Fibrocystic Breast Condition? Fibrocystic breasts are characterized by lumpiness and usually discomfort in one or both breasts. The condition is very common and benign, meaning that fibrocystic breasts are not malignant (cancerous).
Usually, treatment for this is relief of symptoms-- so, as long as you are following your doctors instructions and they seem to be working as far as pain is concerned then you are okay. Always go to your follow up appointments-- even if you feel better.
Here's a great website to explain FBC more in depth:
