Re: Ultrasound, now a biopsy

Thank you for your input. I just got a little freaked out when 4 of them were found, as I could only feel one. Biopsy is tomorrow so hopefully that will clear things up!

Re: Ultrasound, now a biopsy

Hi Anna,
It’s certainly good that this has been picked up so that it can be properly investigated & if it is not clear what it is, then biopsy is the normal course of action in this situation.
In someone of your age, it would be highly unlikely to be bc & there is usually a much more common reason for the breast change.

Ultrasound, now a biopsy

Hello,

I had a chest ct scan for asthma reasons when they noticed something in one of my breasts that showed up on the scan. They advised me to get a breast ultrasound on just the one breast where they ended up finding four masses--the largest is 3cm, and that one is quite palpable and a tad bit tender when pressed on. They now have me scheduled for a biopsy on just the largest nodule. She said I also have dense tissue apparently.
Does all of this sound like normal protocol? Is there anything I should be worried about? Breast cancer does run in my family. I'm in my early 20s, no kids.
