I'm worried, though statistically this "shouldn't" be happening, I had DCIS on my left side but got a double mastectomy due to my young age (35) and the fact my mom had her breast cancer return just 2yrs later on her opposite side. But now I'm having some issues with my right (prophylactic) side. I forget what happened…
My MRI showed two new areas of concern, so I have to get a MRI guided biopsy. Last spring I had a biopsy at the scar site come back with fat necrosis, giant cell reaction, and fibrosis, and it seems reasonably likely that the first spot is related to that, but the second spot seems to be a slightly different area, although…

The headaches are pretty mild. I also am having mild nausea - which may be due to…
My liver enzymes have always been a little above normal which the docs attribute to statins. But for the last two times (July and just recently) they have crept a little higher than they’ve ever been. One of them is ALP which can get higher because of bone metastasis.
