General Surgeon 's  Response
Hi. If the lumps are coming and going over months in the breasts and armpits , this is suggestive of fibroadenosis a benign condition not to bother about except the pains and flu like symptoms you get.
These are hormone dependent so they increase and decrease according to the changing hormonal levels as a routine normal change.
Yet better to show this to the Surgeon during the attach and get a confirmed diagnosis. These certainly may not be cancers as they never regress.
I find this answer helpful
