We know, waiting is VERY difficult but we're here for you.
Hi all, long post to give context but the TLDR is — what to do about a large lump with high-risk/atypical findings (but not necessarily malignant) and positive-margins in one breast five years after early stage cancer in the other breast? Five years ago, I had a lumpectomy and radiation for stage 1 ER/PR-negative cancer in…
It's unbelievable how terrible the waiting process is!!! I've tried distracting myself, it only works sometimes. My left breast ultrasound a few years ago showed a cluster of complex cysts at 12 o'clock (birads 3), which has been monitored every 6 months ever since. The most recent was done on Aug 12 which showed it seems…
I found a lump in my breast and went to the clinic yesterday where I had a mammogram then ultrasound. I am high risk due to my mum having R & L breast cancers and same for one auntie and just one breast for other auntie. At the initial consultation the Dr said its probably a cyst but at the ultrasound the radiologist said…
I was expecting the call back for further tests because they told me at my screening that I have dense breasts. But what I wasn’t expecting was the finding that says “spiculated mass” found in right breast. When I googled that it says a 90-96% chance that it is malignant. Has anyone had that and had it NOT turn out to be…
Hi, I’m 5 weeks post diep flap surgery for lobular BC and waiting for oncotype test result, which I have just found out will be over the phone. Has anyone had Oncotype result over the phone which resulted in chemo? I’m stressing out about difference between in person and phone consultations and if there is any difference…
I am a 42 year old woman. I did my first ever screening beginning of this year. I went for a biopsy last week for asymmetry and distortion in 2 regions on same breast. Each region less than 1 cm. I will know the results next week, but anxious. Google says ppv for distortion malignancy is 75%. I had assumed the chances are…
Went in Friday for my call back diagnostic mammogram and ultrasound. 1 hour of mammogram pictures including magnified images. Then half hour ultrasound by technician followed by doctor coming in and doing scan as well. You know things aren’t great when they keep looking at you like you should be freaking out. Results…bi…
Hi all, I'm a 35 yr old F with family history of BC on my mothers side; a aunt and a cousin (not mother/daughter). I have been having pain in my L breast off/on, no palpable lump, but had mammo/ultrasound to be safe, which showed; 8mmx7mmx3mm solid mass with lobular margins, parallel, no enhanced through transmission or…
Who here has had a Non-Mass Enhancement show up on MRI but not correspond on Mammo or Ultrasound? Did you still have it biopsied? What did it end up being? I'm waiting on an MRI biopsy which my breast surgeon is recommending for the peace of mind vs. waiting and repeating the MRI in 6 months, and now I can't get in for…
I’m 37, had a mammogram & ultrasound earlier this month due to changes in my right breast not responding to dermatological treatment (persistent itching, raised bump/rash, discharge). The 2 findings were Birads 4 (no letter): a small mass in the upper outer quadrant (10:00, U.S. biopsy), and the other a skin-related lump…
