I cannot find my previous thread, but this is my newest CT scan. So far I have had them in November, January, April, and today. I had a PET in November that lit up on a couple of spots in my left lung and three level 2 cervical nodes. Currently on a watch and see. Anyone have some information on this newest scan? Not…
I am nearing my 5 year anniversary of Stage 1, Grade 3, BC in my left breast and today the mammogram and sonogram picked up somethin in my right breast. (I just had a clear MRI on this breast 8 months ago!) The radiologist said it could be a hematoma as there is no vascularity and it is very small (5mm) but I am spiraling…
Twelve years ago I had spontaneous nipple discharge from my right breast. Following a mammogram, ultrasound, and biopsy, I ended up having a lumpectomy to remove an intraductal papilloma. All was good until 6 month after the surgery and the spontaneous discharge started again and continues still now, 12 years later. No…

I had a biopsy and clip placed 2 years ago after my first exam showed a spot everything ended up being fine .these were the findings from that biopsy 2 years ago (benign adipose tissue and blood with focal fibrosis, columnar cell change, and apocrine metaplasia.)

hi all, I know that this is a silly question, but I still have to ask. Do mammograms, especially mammograms that use tomosynthesis (3D) look at the entire breast or one specific area? I had a questionable area, the radiographer place a marker on the top of it, and then took the images. I received a Birads 2 but it makes me…
Hello, Dx'd with TN cancer 10/27/2015, and then with uterine cancer in 2020. This week, I was taking a shower and felt a lump in my right breast. It is painful to the touch, and it is as though the tissue around the marble-sized lump has disappeared. I know I don't know for sure, but I know —I am sure you all know what I…
Husband here. My wife was diagnosed about 2 1/2 years ago. She is doing well. But that's not to say there haven't been more than a few moments of high anxiety thinking something's wrong or just waiting for test results to rule out a recurrence or mets. I hope it's ok with the great members here that I start a thread that's…
Hi I was diagnosed with ADH 13 years ago when I was in my 30's. Had a few biopsies since then but everything came back normal. I went recently for my mammogram/ultrasound and was called back for a diagnostic ultrasound. The impression states: Left breast mass at 11:00 1 cm from the nipple which demonstrates interval…
Hi all. This morning I found a large lump in my right breast. I have just been to doctors and she checked my armpits (all fine) She said the lump was large but she could move it around and didn't seem sinister. She said a possibility is because of hormones. I am 44 and my period came yesterday although I am starting to get…
