Hi Colleen,
Unfortunately, the picture became even murkier today with the ultrasound and mammogram. There were no findings that corroborated the MRI findings. The mammogram did find pleomorphic linear calcifications in the opposite breast (not seen on MRI) so I might be facing two biopsies. A discussion came up today with the radiologist about consideration of a double mastectomy in light of the multiple excisional, MRI guided, and steriotactic biopsies I've had. I meet on Wednesday with my long-standing surgeon. Thank you so much for connecting with me and for your concern. I greatly appreciate this forum.

Followup to my post on 11/28: met with my surgeon and he is concerned that I could have lobular cancer, which he says often doesn't show up on mammo and ultrasound. I added a separate post about positive MRI and negative mammo/US for anyone with similar experience.
