Why wear a ribbon?

"I wear this ribbon because Alzheimer's in in our family, I have fibromyalgia, I'..." (igimom)

MDJunction to me

"I have been struggling with Fibromyalgia, Bipolar, Anxiety, Post traumatic Syndrome for quite some time and pretty much going it alone. I stumbled across MDJunction by accident. I stayed in the shadows and just watched for four days and then I joined, feeling relieved and excited to have found a safe place with alot of folks that I could relate to . It's proove to be medically and emotionally
helpful to me and now I can't go a day without coming in at least 4 or five times a day! I Love my family here.

That's quite allright Maggie, How will you know if you don't ask someone? In this froum, we are all very close.

Maggie, that sounds like a boil to me. Could you be allergic to any meds?

It sounds like a boil or perhaps a cyst. Cyst are not uncommon on the breast either. They are nothing to worry about however and neithr are boils really they are mostly just a nussance. They do get very sore and tender but, once they pop (ie popcorn) with proper disenficant they just go away and usually don't come back.

I get them on my back alot but, as to weather it has anything with fibro or note I really can't say. Sorry but, that is about all I know about that. I do get small whitehead sort of things on my breast but, they don't get as bad as you describe. They do pop but, not like a boil or cyst. More like a whitehead or blackhead and they are very small. They don't ooze either what is inside of them is very hard like a core. I would check with my dr. about what you have however, just to make sure what you have is nothing to worry about. I don't really think it will be but, better to be on the safe side.

love ya

Just finding this page. I get the things like Brenda is talking about, small but has a hard 'seed' like thing inside, and mine sometimes hurt. Usually only on the mams, no place else.

Pamela {please}

I wish tons of love and hugs!

Yes and it could be something like what they call on a dog a hot spot too. Those are really just places that feel hot to the touch and look a bit red yet no core is in them and if left alone they seem to just go away. Really they don't go away they are absorbed into the body somewhere else. That is till the body kills the infection on its own. I use to get those alot but, haven't had them in a long time. My dr. described them to me just like I told you. Hot spots. lololol
