I had a screening mri last week and was a birads 4 with a suspicious rim enhancing mass. They recommended us guided biopsy. I went for the 2nd look biopsy, and after a lot of searching around my cysts, and comparing to the mri, they said they found the mass and to come back the next day for the biopsy.

The next day, the tech said she found it right away, but the radiologist wasn’t convinced. She pulled up the mri, changed my positions, and ultimately decided she couldn’t truly correlate what she saw with the MRI. But, she said, “what i am seeing is just a cluster of cysts.” And told me not to worry. She recommended an MRI guided biopsy. I went home feeling better, but a little frustrated I still had to wait.

Then I saw the us report and she mentioned that she couldn’t correlate the mass with the mri due to cysts, and rated it birads 4/5.


Now, it’s a week after my initial call saying I needed a biopsy, and I’m still no further along. I waiting on my MO (who follows me due to my high risk status) to send the order for the MRI biopsy. Hopefully, this will be the week it all is finished one way or another. I can deal with good orbad news, I just hate the uncertainty.
