    Kimmie39 has bilateral IBC. You might want to PM her and ask if if hers was diagnosed simultaneously or sequentially.

    Erika-

    I was diagnosed with IBC in left breast in mid 2006 and had chemo and radiation, then bilateral mastectomies.  In early 2007 had recurrence of IBC on left side and it also spread in skin (skin mets) to right side.  I had radiation on right side with continuous chemo since first diagnosed in 2006.  IBC is very aggressive, as you know.  Also, I am triple-negative, so surgery, chemo, radiation are my 3 options.   Will they do a biopsy to confirm if yours is IBC?  What symptoms do you have?  Same as when you were originally diagnosed?

    Keep us posted here, Erika.  I hope its not IBC but if it is, you have to get ready for another round of fighting.  We will be here to help you every step of the way!
