  4. Lump in left breast. A better option?

Lump in left breast

2018-03-11 15:22:24
Hi, My mother feels a 0.8cms width lump in her left breast. She is also diabetic with her blood sugar higher than normal as tested 1 day back. She wants to get a biopsy done but I’ve heard that after biopsy, if the area proves to be cancerous, it starts spreading. Is that correct ? Is pin needle test a better a better option ?
