Can fibroadenomas turn cancerous?
I have had a breast fibroadenoma (left side) since my teens ( now 40) and would like to know if it can turn cancerous. I have recently been experiencing strange sensations in my lower legs and left arm which come and go - tightening and tingling . I have no swelling in my underarm lymph nodes but sometimes feel a prickling sensation under my left arm. I have arranged an appointment with my gp but would like to know what I am likley to face prior to attending. Would tests be able to confirm how long the fibroadenoma has been there for? Thank you

BRCA2 issues
Hi. My maternal line has been diagnosed with a BRCA2 fault - leading to increased risk of breast & other cancers (my mother and grandmother have all been tested positive). I've now had genetic testing and am all clear, but my sister hasn't been tested yet. Is there any evidence to suggest that the likelihood of her having BRCA2 fault is decreased given that her sibling doesn't have it?

Could I have breast cancer?
I am a 40 year old woman and I have just discovered a lump in my right breast. I have always had fairly lumpy breasts but this lump is different as it is bigger and harder and has been the same for 2 months now. It doesn’t hurt. My mother died of breast cancer and I am really worried - I’m not sure I want to know if it is....
