Biopsy results are Invasive Ductal Carcinoma with tubular features, grade 1. Radiologist says I need to schedule another biopsy on a second smaller mass also in right breast, previously set for 6 month follow up. It was deemed likely benign, but she says now that I have a confirmed malignancy in that breast, it needs a biopsy now. Talking to breast surgeon’s APN about plan today.
US guided, vacuum-assisted core needle biopsy with 9 passes (# of samples taken). Pathology report in approximately 48 hours. Ice packs and Tylenol tonight but so far no real discomfort.
