Sorry to hear about your problem. Although cysts are usually not associated with cancer but the presence of blood inside the cyst is an alarming sign and rightly the fluid has been sent for analysis. Considering you family history of cancer, it is better that you get yourself regularly checked up by a breast surgeon and get annual mammograms done.
Hoping for the best.
