Ì felt lump and had ultrsound and showed up on mri. Did not show up on ultrasound til I pointed out felt lump. Opted not to have radiation nor hormone blocker. Will only have mris from now on and ultrasound. Mammo did not show cancer.

I had the double mastectomy so I would not have radiation. Radiation on 2 breasts after chemotherapy would have been too much to handle. The doctors I went to earlier did not take the lump out. They watched it become cancer. After it was found in both breasts I went to Sloan Kettering in N. Y. city. They specialize in Cancer only.
I had same experience. Very large lump not detected by mammography. I saw it. Lymph nodes involved. Left breast. Had mastectomy. Am taking AI and having 5 wks of radiation. No metastasis shows on scans after surgery. I too will have only MRIs from here on.

My cancer did not showon mammogram either. Lobular Cancer doesn’t showon a mammogram I had to have a double mastectomy cause I had a different type of cancer in my other breast. I didn’t want it coming back. Went to Sloan Kettering in Manhattan. I am cancer free 21 years. Thank God!
