I had ILC. 12mm. Lumpectomy. Last Sept. Had hysterectomy a year before that because I had endometrial cancer. I am also thin but otherwise healthy except two years ago diagnosed with RA. I control it with methetrexate and plquenil. Because of the testing I have had there is a 92% chance I will not get my BC back so I did not have radiation and opted not to do the hormone blocker. Because I have osteopinia and the blocker would throw me into osteoporosis. I lift light weights and walk and use elyptical 5 days a week. My mammos every year with ultrasound did not show my breast cancer. I found the lump myself. It showed up with mri with dye. I am having only mris now and ultra sounds but am having a hydration iv to clear the gadioleum dye from my system. My hair thinned but taking neutrofol everyday. We will see. I just. Keep moving and checking my self. Good luck to you.

Also I am having mris/ ultrasounds instead of mammos from now on. The mammo did not show my ILC. Is anyone having mri and having a hydration infusion too to wash the die out of your system. I have not had it yet and am requesting it for my follow up mri in july. The gadolinium dye is not good for you but it is all they have to show the breast cancer in breast if any.
