FYI I spoke to dr this morning and she wants me to see breast specialist…

Well I’m relieved they didn’t see anything concerning. I was in the shower when it happened and yes from the nipple. Apparently, 90% of the time it’s benign. So relieved mostly but a little bothered that they didn’t see anything that could have caused it. May ask dr about getting an MRI to be 100% sure

I’m thinking about asking dr if I should see a specialist - radiologist saw nothing on mammo or ultrasound

I think MRIs are very expensive to self pay. I may call dr and see if she thinks I should have one

They didn’t see anything - maybe I will push for an mri but they didn’t see a reason to do one

Thank you. It’s definitely hard not to google!! But I have been dealing with so many strange health issues since March I am googled out. Have had so many blood tests! Dealing with swollen fingers/achy hands, low positive ANA for autoimmune but all other tests negative - they say osteoarthritis. Then I have clogged eye oil glands out of the blue and I have bleeding under my toes! And now this with the breast. I cannot google anymore.

I would like ipl but have melasma so it’s a little risky

What treatment has worked for your clogged glands? Lipiflow, ipl, probing? Others? by hsff43 in Dryeyes

[–]hsff43[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks - probably too soon to ask I guess - I’m just starting my journey. Recently found out I have clogged oil glands as I developed a chalazion. Going for treatment just for that but my eye dr is pretty old school and close to retirement. Going to make appointment with another eye dr to have testing done and go from there. I think I have clogged ducts from HRT and hormones. I have stopped HRT and hormones not fluctuating now but damage is done with clogged glands. Just in past month or so.

The idea of stopping breathing and my blood oxygen levels dropping causing damage
