How did they determine it was DCIS though without a biopsy . The biopsy is what gives you the staging and grade. You still need to know if it’s DCIS 1, 2 or high grade 3 .

True! My biopsy is being delayed a few months because I’m about to go on Medicare, but you are correct; they won’t know for sure until the biopsy. I should have been more clear. After my second mammogram I was told this is what THEY THINK I have, DCIS. I don’t know the level etc. I’ll find out in September and let you all know. In the meantime I am gathering information from you all.
