Was your breast cancer misdiagnosed by a radiologist?

This sounds so much like my story right now. I do not feel comfortable knowing I have this "tumor" in me and do not know what it is. The radiologist admitted he doesn't know either but knows it isn't cancer. I'm going for a second opinion and hopefully they biopsy it. Thank you so much for this!

I was also told that my lump (golf ball size) was nothing to worry about by radiology. My surgeon felt differently and removed it, grade 3 cancer.
My point is this, never accept an answer that hasn’t been tested. If there is a hard lump and he says it’s a tumor, I would not rest until it is under a microscope. This is my 20/20 hindsight from my own situation.
It is your body and no one will protect it like you will. Please make sure you are comfortable with your second opinion, especially since I think I read you have breast cancer in your family.
When is your appointment for a second?
