Worried about IBC

DancingElizabeth

Hi All,

I was originally dx with Stage 3 A IDC. I had mastectomies, chemo and radiation. I had breast expanders put in. Over the past few months - I've had redness, slight swelling and tenderness on my right breast. And, the skin feels warm. I've had 2 ultrasounds done and both times was told this is not cancer. But, likely an infection from my expanders. And, I took antibiotics and it cleared up. My MO felt that it is likely not cancer.

But, it happened, AGAIN, a couple days ago: redness, swelling, warm to the touch and tender. My MO ordered another ultrasound- to be done as soon as possible. I googled my symptoms and am scared to death that this could be IBC!!! Any thoughts?????

Scared - Looks like you started two separate threads with the same question. Folks are responding on the other one so I'd delete this post.
