For those who are experiencing symptoms or received concerning test results, but haven't been diagnosed with breast cancer.
I cant stop thinking the worse. So in December I noticed I had some swelling and firmer breast tissue in the tail of spence area almost looked like axillary breast tissue. I had a baby a year ago so my boobs are not what they once were. Ever since becoming a Mom I have huge anxiety with my health and so booked in for an…
i went in for an ultrasound yesterday and the radiologist told me that the lump she sees and feels is “more than likely” cancerous - especially because of a lymph node in my armpit that looks like its swollen. Why would she tell me this without a biopsy? The images didn't show any fingers sprouting it was just a black lump…
Hi, 51 with first mammo last week. Call today, scattered fibro glandular densities. Left breast no suspicious findings. Right breast focal asymmetry. No calcifications or architectural distortion in either breast. Benign appearing lymph nodes in both axillae. Grade B density. I go for diagnostic mammo and possible us in…
When I first discovered my lump, it was about an inch deep in my breast. It's now at the surface, red and swollen. This is my fear, I've had lumps before and they always want away.
Hi everyone, I am new here and just went through a roller coaster with my breast exams over the past week. Hoping to get some help and support from this group. I am 38 and just finished breastfeeding my 1 yr old. I did my first mammogram last Friday and got callback for diagnostic mammogram followed by ultrasound. I was…
Hello, dear All I am this time trying to find out what to advice to my daughter, who is healthy, and she is 46 years old. But as my daughter(i had a breast cancer in 2019, had lumpectomy and radiation, taking exemestane for 5 years), she was told she has 20% risk to get breast cancer during lifetime. No BRCA gene issue, i…
Has anyone had a breast MRI for clip placement? Do they do the full MRI with IV contrast or is it abbreviated—e.g. no contrast—and only check to see if the clip is in the correct place? My doctor has already sent in the requisition for a post biopsy MRI to confirm clip placement, but I have a new palpable lump that isn't…
hello all I received an excision biopsy in 2018 and the result was atypical lobular hyperplasia cells. At the time the breast surgeon wanted me to take tamoxifen, but I declined. I have been receiving mammograms & a few MRIs at the beginning of surveillance period. Then went to just mammogram/ultrasound. Periodically, I…
Good evening! Long story short, I started having a severe pain in my breast 3 weeks ago. I ended up at my high risk breast specialist where they did an ultrasound. Turns out I had an abscess. They drained it with a needle and put me on antibiotics. The antibiotics I started with didn’t work and my abscess filled up again,…
hi! I’m f22 and felt something asymmetrical in my left breast a few months ago. I do acknowledge I have a lot of health anxiety, so things like this are blown out of proportion. I have no family history or risk factors. A couple months ago in my left breast, right above where the top of my areola ends, when I press in I…
