Tired Girl

Ok..........Rewind!

Well I just got in from my trip, and it's snowing, and snowing hard.

But that is not why I am writing. I picked up MRI films and report. Guess what, I'm a bit angry at my doctor. My oncologist. He told me all about my "new suspicious" image, and he was talking the whole time about my left breast, the one with the mastectomy. I can see now with the films, the area, but they say it is normal.

Guess what...reading the report it isn't my LEFT BREAST it is in my RIGHT BREAST..the perfect pretty one. NICE HUH! I just can't believe this. This is what the report says:

On the right, there has been interval development of a few very small areas of nodular enhancement. These measure 4x 2mm with an adjacent 2m area of enhancement. these lie in the inferior RIGHT breast at approximately the 6 o'clock position, 7.5 from the center. The enhancement patter is rapid but persistent. Given the interval development as well as the history of DCIS which demonstrated a similar pattern of enhancement on the previous MRI, I would consider follow up with a biopsy to exclude underlying malignancy or developing DCIS.

WOW...So now Round Two.......FIGHT! So I have an appointment with the doctor again, my surgeon on Monday. Then an MRI guided biopsy and the results will be GOOD. I am going to believe this. If it is DCIS..then we deal with it. If it is another occurrence of Breast Cancer...then it has spread. NOT GOOD. But we will have to be hopeful and think that everything will be alright.

The things I go through....
