I'm sorry you cut yourself off, too! My daughter had fibrous cysts removed when she was just just 17. Now 24, she must go for annual exams and is lucky to have a very attentive, caring doctor. Interestingly enough, it is her otolaryngologist who keeps up with her, since she has developed fibrous cysts on her throat.

He has not been able to determine what is causing the cysts; neither could her oncologist. We don't have a history of breast cancer on either side of the family, so this is puzzling.

We've had some discussions on this topic before, too:
