Definitely get a 2nd opinion. My husband was diagnosed with Neck and throat cancer in May 2022. He was told the lump in his neck was nothing by 2 CT scans, 2 radiologist, a biopsy and 3 Drs. He just wanted the lump gone regardless of what it was. Finally an ERT Dr did a small biopsy, this time by putting him in the hospital and under the “knife” to find out what it was. They caught it Stage 1 but if he would of listened to what 2 radiologist said that it was nothing, we would of waited for years and it would of been much worse.
I was diagnosed with Stage IV breast cancer in 2020 that I put off because of everything closed due to Covid and I kept ignoring the lump thinking “it must be a cyst”.
Good luck in your journey and keep a positive attitude!

Welcome @jpnnobx. What are the odds that both you and your husband would be diagnosed with different cancers within a couple of years of each other.

But back to breast cancer. May I ask what treatment you are curently on? How are you doing?
