Phoebie I'd love to hear what your experience with your reoccurring cyst is now? I have a similar problem, my second abscess burst last night after using goldenseal on a pad. The original cyst remains unfortunately and I imagine it is because the duct is blocked. Have you had any success with your cyst going away? And if so, how? Thanks for your idea, if mine returns I am going to try your remedy. Best, Kate
