Should i be worried that i have a 6-month follow-up mammo and ultrasound of one breast that had a benign biopsy? it did have one other complicated cyst that wasnt biopsied. homogeneous fibroglandular tissue. no family history of cancer?

A biopsy of any "complicated" cyst of the breast is best evaluated by a wire-located biopsy for definitive diagnosis. See your gyn physician, and ask for an interventional radiology consult to determine this diagnosis.
