Suggest Treatment For Lump In Upper Left Arm

I have a lump in my upper left arm. I also have one my left breast. Could hey be connected? I had a mamogram and sonogram test today on the breast and they are thinking it is a fibroid tumor but they did no test on the arm.
I go to the doctor in two days to do a pelvic sono because the doctor thinks he found a fibroid tumor on my uterus during my physical today. Could these be connected? Should I ask for biobsy on all three? Should I ask for a cancer blood test (if one exists?)
I also suspect I have gallbladder problems because I have pain in my right rib area. Could this be connected?
