Hi anyone
I have a question.
The fact my tumour was 37mm has been bothering me.
I thought the original sizing of 24mm was an estimate from measurements on the mammogram etc.
but its just dawned on me the increase in size is from it actually growing in the month in between. It then became geade 3 from 2. So does this mean it was fast growing not just that they estimated incorrectly?
Thank you in advance. Xx
Hi square-boob
Grade 3 is considered to be faster growing. I was in the same position as you. Grade 2 at biopsy, grade 3 on removal. They also found high grade DCIS which required a second scoop out.
Regardless of the speed, just remember it’s gone now…so the biggest culprit has been evicted!
Hope your post-op treatment goes well. I’ve just started Tamoxifen and waiting from my radiotherapy appointment.
Take care x
