Thank you!! Those are great questions that I will definitely ask.
I just hope they see something! I have read that an MRI should be able to pick up scar tissue but I guess I don’t know that for sure.
It’s so strange to clearly feel something but not be able to see it!

I’ve attached my MRIs of the scar they were seeing on my left breast. This was scar from the breast reduction. A couple of wedges of tissue were removed, the nipple was moved up, and all was put back together. I believe the scar is along the tissue that had the vein supplying blood to the nipple. I did not have cancer in this breast.
Check the dates on the scan. Two from October 2023 with the concerning area circled, one from April 2024. The radiologist said they were no longer concerned about the scar - but I don’t know specifically why. You’d think I’d ask, right?!! I guess I was so relieved to hear it was nothing.
I can’t see what they’re comparing on the MRI, maybe there was no new growth so it was considered stable.
I’m not sure if these images will be at all helpful to you. But figured it couldn’t hurt to post them.
