My situation is more like yours. I am not sure how the doctors are going to deal with it. I had my mammogram a year back, wasn't scheduled for another year. Felt a lump in the outer side of the left breast closer to my clavicle. By the time I made an appointment with my Oby gyn and saw her the lump was gone. They did ultrasono and mammo, found small lump in left side and saw a shade in the right side in the mammo nothing in ultrasono. When the biopsy in left side came out +ve for ER and PR The bipsied the right breast in the mammo equipment. That came out +ve for HER2 also.
Did you have both ER/PR +ve and HER2 +ve? Did your skin itch around the neck and breast?

Hi @angel01, how are you doing? Have you met with the cancer team yet to discuss next steps?

I was dx with IDC stage 1 on Sept. 25. For 6 months previous I had a "crawling" sensation in that breast but ignored it. This itching feeling still comes and goes and has expanded to the axilla and upper trunk. I mentioned it at my biopsy and ultrasound, but nobody expressed concern. I will meet with my surgeon next Thursday and will let you know if she has anything to say about it.

Also, when I was first told there might be a problem, I googled "crawling sensation in breast" and one of the search responses was "Breast Cancer symptoms...."

Hope you are doing ok.
