Does IBC show on MRI?  My main complaint is pain, however, I did have a biopsy done on an area found on the MRI and it turned out to be benign.  I have small red bumps that pop up and go away and my surgeon says this is not IBC.  She also says that IBC would have "fired up" on the MRI.  I'm still feeling concerned.  Any thoughts on MRI and IBC?

    TLM - From my own experience and others, I'd offer that MRIs typically do not catch IBC. BUT you should take heart that the small red bumps that 'pop up and go away' are doing just that ... going away! If their frequency increases or they start to hang around, that's the time to get your docs take again. Good Luck and allow your body the chance to heal after your biopsy.
