I had an MRI for severe back pain, nerve damage affecting my legs and feet arranged by neurologist. He’s writing to back specialist now to discuss having a nerve block injection. But I had a letter come from the MRI dept explaining in detail what showed up & it mentions there are several typical & atypical haemangioma tumours. My Breast cancer support group are telling me to contact gp/breast nurses asap because of my history and they should do son e further checks to establish if they are either benign, possible metastases or even MS lesions. Please has anyone had any thing like this and can you help me with further information?? Thanks, Michele ?
Michele ,surely your neurologist would be aware of your history and take that into account when looking at the MRI results -nevertheless may be worth discussing with breast care team ,they may be able to look at the results and hopefully re-assure you .You could also ask about this in the Ask the Nurses section.Jill x
