Hi,
I got my second biopsy report results today. It shows invasive ductal
carcinoma in 2 separate areas,Grade 2,as well as the original 2 areas with the
ductal carcinoma in situ. My surgeon says this is very uncommon to have .
I'm having an MRI on the 16th and will see an oncologist on the 20th.
I don't have any palpable swelling in the lymph nodes,but a tracking dye
will be put in the morning of surgery to see if it's spread to the lymph
system,with a node biopsy if necessary.
The next step (after the 20th) is to discuss with the surgeon and oncologist
which to have first;the mastectomy or the chemo. Will also have chest x-ray and
labs.
Scariest thing is the 2 invasive areas did not show on the mammograms!
