Can lethargy and a lump in the breast be related?
Patient: Hi there,  I recently visited our local doctors clinic (about 5 weeks ago) to have a lump in my breast near my underarm checked.  The doctor suspects it is a 'breast mouse' but wanted me to have a breast ultrasound to check this.  I have been waiting since then for the appointment for this to come in the post, not worrying too much.  However in the past week I have felt very lethargic for no apparent reason and wondered if this could be related? I am 27 years old and otherwise in good health.  Thankyou. Doctor: The lump in your case appears to be a fibroadenoma...a benign swelling...  if small it can disappear on its own over time...  if larger may need to be removed by surgery.... There is no relation between your breast lump and lethargy...  if persistently lethargic get yourself checked to rule out other causes
