I already have UC and RA. I am 35.
Both my nipples are crusty but one discharges brown liquid. I have a chest xray this week and am terrified I will be diagnosed with breast cancer or that it has spread.
What did I do to deserve all this at only 35?

Truth is you haven't done anything to deserve it - this is life, and shit happens. If life was fair, this kind of shit would only happen to evil gits, but it's not the case.
We can't control what shit life throws at us, but we do get to choose our attitudes when said shit hits the fan, and personally I like to have some control over life's shit - even if it's just my own attitude. (trying to see how many shits I can get onto one post lol)
I hope you get good news re the chest X Ray and that there are people around you giving you support? X
and what is RA ?
Rheumatoid Arthritis I'm guessing?Quote:

Secondly, the discharge - don't panic - there are a number of non-cancerous conditions that can cause exactly the discharge you describe (in the absence of other symptoms).
