Okay...a Breast Question...



Recommended Posts

I was banded a little over 2 weeks ago and have lost close to 20 pounds. I have large breasts and lately they have been itchy and very lumpy...has anyone else have this problem? Breast cancer runs in my family so the lumpy thing was making me pretty nervous...any input is welcome :mellow: Thanks in advance :)

Go in for a check up. There's nothing in the surgery that should make you lumpy...at least nothing I'm aware of. I'm large breasted and haven't had any issues at all...Best check with your gyn or primary care doctor to make sure it's nothing to be worried about.

That's what I was afraid of...Yeah my husband just thought that maybe since I lost that weight kind of fast that maybe it caused it...thank you though...I'll try to get in and update when I can :thumbup:

OK! Maybe your husband is right...or maybe you just have "fibroids" that are nothing and you couldn't feel them before. Best to confirm though! I'm sure you'll be fine! :thumbup:

I would think if its both breasts its not any thing to serious. Have you lost weight in your breasts and are now more aware of lumpy breasts? I know a lot of women have what they call lumpy breasts, I think its hormonal if I remember right. As far as the itching well who knows it could be anything including stress. Its a good idea to see a Dr. just to make sure . I wouldnt worry to much.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
