We know, waiting is VERY difficult but we're here for you.
This past September I had a screening MRI (strong family history of ovarian and breast cancer, BI-RADS D breast density). It showed a "10 x 9 x 11 mm homogeneously enhancing but slightly spiculated nodule in the axillary tail of the left breast". BI-RADS 5. The radiologist recommended targeted ultrasound with possible…
was supposed to hear at 2:00 about biopsy results it is now 4:00. just happened to check mychart and they said results were not finalized yet, may be tomorrow. you think they could have called in case I hadn’t checked mychart! now anxiety over why they haven’t been finalized ☹️
Happy Monday all - So I had my core biopsy today for my BIRADS 4 mass. It was up as a hypoechoic mass or complicated cyst. Biopsy pulled solid components, no fluid for needle aspiration. I’m stuck in the waiting game - but the doctor performing the biopsy said the likelihood of cancer was low, but couldn’t narrow down what…
Silly question probably - I had ultrasound guided biopsy this morning. It’s been six hours. Not much pain but my nipple is itching like crazy. The biopsy was 3 cm away from the nipple. Is this normal? The aftercare instructions didn’t say anything about itching. I had an mri guided biopsy and a stereotactic biopsy and…
Hi, I recently found this group because of "scanaxiety" due to an abnormal mammogram. In case it's useful to anyone, wish to post about my good experience with a Birads 0 "area of architectural distortion" on my screening mammogram. This resulted in diagnostic mammography, ultrasound, biopsy, and more mammography with a…
on Friday I had an MRI due to some ongoing armpit pain and swelling as well as breast pain. I was told 2-3 days for results. I was doing well on Friday, not as well yesterday, and now today I can barely keep it together. I’m petrified of what the test could show. On one hand I just want to know what’s going on, and the n…
this is my first post here. Feeling completely overwhelmed. I had a mammo and u/s in January. A cyst and hypoechoic mass was seen. Went back for follow up u/s in July. Everything was stable. Advised to come back in 6 months. Birads 3. A nurse called that day and said my lifetime risk is a 28% and a second opinion is an…
So frustrated and stuck in limbo. Just turned 41 and long story short, I’ve been having a rollercoaster of mammos, dx mammos, US, biopsies, MRI, and more biopsies since April. Side note: also found out then that I’m highly allergic to MRI contrast. Last pre-biopsy meeting, I find out that one area of architectural…
Hello Ladies, I had an abnormal screening mammogram and then I had a diagnostic mammo and U/S. The U/S showed a suspicious spot, so they want to biopsy it. I decided to switch breast care centers because I didn't like the radiologist. I felt like it was now processing number 20. I went to get the films from one place to…
Had lumpsectomy and now waiting for onco test score to determine if I need chemo or not. Oncologist doesn’t think so based on my other data - eg Stage 1A 1.5cm tumor size . Grade 2 Can anyone tell me what the ER and PR mean below especially the 3+ want to work out my H score ? Pathologic TNM Staging (AJCC 8th edition) pT1c…
