@eddyscissors very many of us have unfortunately had a very similar experience. It feels like getting diagnosed is way too hard when you “do” have breast cancer.
I had multiple mammograms, multiple ultrasounds, and even two biopsies, and I kept getting told there was something there but it wasn’t important, and I was too young to have breast cancer. 🙄
When the most amazing surgeon said he would just feel better if he cut it out and sent it to the lab. I jumped at the chance, and sure enough it was a really aggressive form of IDC.
There is no way to know for sure until a biopsy or a lumpectomy tells you for sure if it is cancer and what kind of cancer it is, but don’t quit until you feel you have the answers you need.
Are you having a needle biopsy, or an excision biopsy? Will you come back and let us know what you find out?
