breast reduction....I was just wondering... I had a breast reduction 8 years ago... yesterday the radiologist told me that the hard lump on my right breast is a "fatty scar" is it possible that when you have scar tissue the radiologist sees "abnormailites" as scar tissue???? |

Results, sortaOkay i finally had my mammogram yesterday... they took lots of views. the radiologist said that the hard ( like a marble) lump in my breast is a " fatty scar that has grown out of my scar tissue from my breast reduction 8 years ago." If it is fatty why is it hard??? trying to decide if i should ask for a needle biopsy for my peace of mind. a friend of mine who is a nurse thinks i should. Thanks !!!! |
