Have read interesting post. Need help. Originally there was two tumors found in right breast through 2 core biopsies. One B9 and other inconclusive. Pathology recommends surgical removal. Referred to breast surgeon. He recommends both surgically removed through excisional biopsy with anesthesia. Surgery was scheduled week later then postpone due to supplements. Rescheduled 3 weeks later. Had MRI day before which revealed 3 new areas not seen on mammogram. One in left breast and two mone in right. 4 including mom had breast cancer. One aunt died. I absolutely hated MRI of breast. I'm claustrophobic. It hurt rib cage too. Surgery postponed again to get core needle in left and MRI biopsy in right. I'm terrified of MRI biopsy. Will get valium but, still terrified. Also long wait for surgery is nerve worrisome to be the least. Please inform me. Family friend was told B9 after core needle then was diagnosed after excisional. Also gonna get genetic testing.
