    My daughter was diagnosed with IBC in Nov.2008 and has been through the two levels of chemo and is scheduled for surgery July 2nd, next Wednesday.The density was measured at 10 cmm in her left breast in the beginning and the final Pet Scan  doesn't show cancer and it hasn't spread.  However, because it is IBC, they can't be sure there aren't cancer cells they can't see.....and it was decided she must have the surgery to make sure and to prevent re-occurence.  Has any of you with IBC NOT had surgery?  Is this what all of you have experienced?  Have  all of you had the mastectomy surgery is her main question.  She has decided to have the bilateral surgery. 

     She is single and 46 years old....just broke up 6 months ago and had decided to get into a relationship to finally get married .. Then she gets this diagnosis so she also feels so alone ....... and has a void that her very dear wonderful friends can't fill. 

    She is gone for a couple of days, so I decided to try to get as many answers as possible from you who have IBC.

    THank you VERY MUCH.  I hope I have lots of input for her to read.!

    God Bless you.
