I had a slightly painful zing around my nipple for about a year, then a lump up high on the chest wall. What symptoms prompted you to seek help?

Back in May, I found a large lump in my right breast that was hard and had jagged edges but did not hurt. My doc called in a diagnostic mammogram and ultrasound guided core biopsy. The initial pathology results came back as pre cancer, Atypical Ductal Hyperplasia.
On August 1st I had Lumpectomy surgery and the whole mass was biopsied and came back as invasive metaplastic carcinoma and also DCIS. I just had a Sentinel Node Biopsy (SNB) today and hope to get those results back in a week. I also did genetic testing and am waiting on those results. Depending on what the results of the testing and results of the SNB, will help determine treatment.
Hopefully you get your biopsy results soon. Let us know what you find out.
I am sending positive vibes your way!
