For those who are experiencing symptoms or received concerning test results, but haven't been diagnosed with breast cancer.
I have a spot that appeared in my right breast a few days ago, it is smaller than a pencil eraser. I went straight into panic mode bc that is what I do. I literally do not have orange peel look, red/hot/tenderness, nipple is fine, no swelling. Looking for advice and see if this looks concerning. Edited by Mods to remove…
After a 6 week wait, my mri guided biopsy for two bi-rad4 suspicious masses is tomorrow morning. I strangely feel clamer now than I have in the past 6 weeks. The limbo ends tomorrow- whatever they find. Please send me all the good vibes and any advice on how long your MRI biospy took, if you were sore after, how long the…
I started HRT at the beginning of December. I have an Estradiol patch and which I change every 4 days abd 200mg Utrogestan daily. I went for a mammogram and the results were “Small apparent non-specific density” I have to go back for more imaging and potentially a biopsy. Should I stop the HRT?
Hi, I have an upcoming stereotactic core needle biopsy done with tomosynthesis and I don't know if it will be upright or lying down. Very anxious about this upcoming procedure. Would like to hear people's experiences with both. Thanks!
Hello, I went in for a routine mammogram (my 10th one) and for the first time I had an abnormal mammogram, and a small mass was found that was given the BIRADS 4 rating. I am now waiting for a stereotactic core needle biopsy. I learned about the titanium marker that will be put in during the biopsy and after talking to my…
Hi Everyone. After 3 weeks of waiting for an ultrasound and biopsy of two suspicious masses- Bi-Rad 4, the ultrasound technician was unable to see my masses bc of my extremely dense breasts. Now i have to wait another 3 1/2 weeks for an MRI guided biopsy.Has anyone else gone through this?
Hi all. They found a mass on my recent screening and now I'm waiting for my diagnostic mammogram and US next week. I don't know if it was an oversight on the breast care navigators part but I didn't even think to ask for the actual report. She didn't give it either and the final report isn't loaded in my portal. Just shows…
Hi all, A few years ago I posted here. I have had one breast that has breast tissue which feels thicker/firmer. Basically if you look up descriptions of ILC it's exactly what it sounds like in my breast. The other breast is much softer. I've had three ultrasounds, one where it was a consultation with a breast surgeon. Lots…
My Mammogram came back normal, I'm 43 years old with no cancer history in the family. This is the first year I've asked for an ultrasound as I have dense breast tissue. The results were as follows: "Ultrasound was performed by the technologist. Representative images of all 4 quadrants and subareolar breasts were obtained.…
I just had my annual screening mammogram and need to go back for more imaging. Focal asymmetry BiRads 0. The best I can tell, the radiologist saw a new area of density in the left breast compared to three previous films. A few months ago, I changed from Premarin vaginal cream to Estradiol cream. The dose on the estradiol…
