I was recently diagnosed via an unconventional route, dermatology, due to spots on my nipples. I've since seen a surgical oncologist and a medical oncologist. Initial thoughts were likely stage one as they could feel no swelling in my lymph nodes and my mammogram and ultrasound were clear. But my MRI came back a couple…
Good morning everyone! I'm writing because I needed to vent to someone about this subject... I'm 38 years old. 3 months ago I discovered a large lump in my left breast. I don't know how I hadn't realized it before, but the truth is that when I found it, I decided to go to the gynecologist. She scheduled me for an…
Diagnostic mammogram and ultrasound today. The radiologist said it was for sure cancer. Large 3-5cm mass in breast with 1 enlarged lymph node. Both bi-rad5 for malignancy. I’m scared to death. Biopsy scheduled for tomorrow. I’m only 39. I have 4 young children. I just finished breastfeeding. I have no idea how I missed…
I recently had a mammogram and ultrasound screening done . Any help deciphering would be greatly appreciated. BILATERAL DIGITAL DIAGNOSTIC MAMMOGRAPHY WITH TOMOGRAPHY AND COMPUTER AIDED DETECTION AND LEFT BREAST ULTRASOUND COMPARISON: None. FINDINGS: Mammography: Digital diagnostic 2-D and 3-D mammography was performed of…
ok so my story is I had BC in 2013 ER+ PR- lumpectomy left breast and rads and 5 years on hormone blockers. Next up was non Hodgkin primary bone in 2015 (very aggressive). Had RCHOP. And more rads. Genetic testing came up with CHEK2. I have a cyst on ovary that has been growing so after lots of other imaging and tumor…
Hello everyone - am back here after a good 2.5 years. This time instead of triple positive, I might be just Her2 (waiting for FISH results tomorrow). I have a 12.1 x 10 x 11 cm NON mass enhancement on MRI that was biopsied to be IDC. They want to do scans to see if anything has spread. Is the norm now CT/Bone Scan and then…
This is my third breast cancer. For the first two, the doctors never suggested any cat scans. New oncologist said she would usually recommend scans to make sure everything else is ok and I said sure. Now I am concerned why they are suggesting scans this time. Does she think the cancer may have spread? The MRI shows a 5 mm…
My MRI report has come back with 4 areas that need a second ultrasound look. BIRADS 4. Does it mean it's pretty serious? I have LCIS and family history.
Hi lovelies! I had a cat scan on Monday due to weird chest pain that was diagnosed as an irritation, given meds, went away, all good. However, they noted bilateral enlarged internal mammary nodes and referred me to my oncologist. Saw her Tuesday morning, she orders Pet scan for today, but it was rescheduled for next…
My breast ultrasound showed 1:00 to 3:00 showing a oval hypoechoic irregular mass at 1:00 6 cm and it is highly suspicious for cancer. My surgeon seemed concerned and said it was a mass and we caught it early. He said a biopsy is needed. Breast cancer runs in my family and one of my family members had the same diagnosis…
