Scared Ibc?

Boyd748

Over the last week my left breast has swollen about a cup size bigger. Swollen all the way up to my collar bone and under my arm. My left arm and shoulder hurts to move them. I don't see any redness or rashes but it's full and painful. Any ideas what might be going on and has anyone else been thru it? Don't thinks it's infection was on antibiotics a couple weeks ago and my youngest child is 13.

What were the results of your biopsy from 2 years ago?

The microcalifications were usual hyperplasia which they said increases my risk of developing cancer in future. I also have a complex fibroadema (something like that) that puts me at increased risk. After the stereotactic biopsy I developed a hemo. This is worse

May have rash or some darker spots but hard for me to tell. My nipple really hurts though.

went to doctor today, she ruled out infection, noticed a concerning lymph node in axillary. I have been scheduled for ultrasound tomorrow to check all lymphnodes. Hoping it will clarify what's going on. I also had an EKG which was normal and a lot of blood work done. The pa I saw said if ultrasound doesn't show anything she will just have me wait and see what changes.

Any ideas or thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks

You're getting good medical attention, so hoping the US is negative.

couldn't get breast ultrasound because the hospital isn't allowed to do breast have to get mamm first. Did have axillary nodes checked should find out tomorrow. PA didn't put on order to check clavicle nodes so couldn't. I'm in a lot of pain! Still swollen all the way to my collar bone maybe more than before, my breast is now warmer than other. Pain in my left arm is bad , really hurts to move it. Pain meds aren't helping enough. ANyone have any ideas on what might help? I need to do housework before we run out of clothe so nd D dishes. Thank
