Us revealed complex cyst/ solid mass w/ very dense breast. biopsy next week. had 2 syncopes & joint/bone pain? symptoms related possibly to cancer?

Unlikely: Cyst in breast are common. But even breast cancer is not a common cause of syncope.

Specializes in Radiology

Not likely related: Syncope not typically related to breast cancer, and you do not even have a diagnosis yet. See your doctor about your syncope and joint/bone pain to discover the cause.
