So I'm in the shower last week, soaping up as usual. I feel an egg-sized cyst where my upper ribs and right breast meet. It's not too hard, and I can move it with my fingers. I'm alarmed only because of it's size and location.

I just may be the luckiest bandster in the world because my wonderful surgeon (Dr. Woody Denham) is five blocks east of my condo, and he's affiliated with the same hospital as my internist and OBGYN. Fun fact - I was born there 45 years ago :rolleyes2:

Anyhoo, his staff heard the fear in my voice (near the breast, 45 years old, etc) and asked me to come in as soon as I dried off. One hour later, my dear surgeon assured me that I had a harmless lipoma (fatty cyst) that has most likely been there for years. No link to obesity and quickly removed with one afternoon off work.

Reason I felt it? Rapid weight loss :cry_smile: It's weird, scary and fun all at the same time!

Love to all Knockouts!

Oh gosh! That is quite the NSV! *big hug* Glad that it was nothing!!
