  Attention everyone - please respond if you have had a similar experience or can recommend a helpful doc. Thanks in advance for helping this mama out! Anonymous asks: "A few months ago I found a lump on one of my breasts and at the time decided to do nothing about it because my mom had something very similar that turned out to be benign and I didn't want to interrupt breastfeeding (my little one was only a month or 2 old at the time). I also had a mammogram at that time and they said it looked benign. Now I'm concerned it has gotten bigger and thinking I need to get it removed, but I still want to be able to breastfeed my little one. Has anyone had any experience with this or know any doctors or surgeons that really advocate for breastfeeding and will do whatever possible to preserve what they can? I just want to find a doctor that "understands". Please help, I'm not sure where to begin."

  There is a breast surgeon I've seen a couple of times during lactation. Her name is Carolyn Cody in Lincoln. She practices general surgery now but came to Lincoln to care for her mom after only practicing breast surgery in MN. Dr. Kathy Leeper at Mi lkWorks often referred surgical cases to her. In my case, she started with an ultrasound rather than a mammogram and was able to help identify what was going on. She is very easy to talk to and understands the lactating breast.
