I had someone buy me a pair few years ago. She's a great goat but had a blown out udder and mastitis. Her udder was huge but she would never let me do anything with it and honestly I didn't know what to do.
Well she had twins this time around and they were doing well on the one side. One died after a month. His legs didn't act right. Anyway now several months out the side that has been blown out and hanging forever is now all drawn up! What's up with that? The tit is still blown looking
Also I have a pregnant doe with matastis. What can I do?

CMT is a California Mastitis Test kit. It is about $14 and should be on the shelf of every dairy goat owner that has goats in milk... the cards are useless.
Your girl does sound like she has mastitis. She may just have a congested udder. As far as lumps in the udder and it being hard...
Has she been tested for CAE? or CL?
