Waiting for biopsy results 🙏🏻

A week ago (last Sunday) I noticed what I thought was a mosquito bite on the inner portion of my left breast. I didn’t think anything of it since I had been working in the yard the day before. Tuesday, I woke up with a larger reddened area and it looked like a hickey. It was definitely NOT a hickey. 🙈 I snapped a picture of it. I’m a nurse and like to take note of things and document! By Thursday, I noticed the area was larger and itched like crazy. I made an appointment with my PCP and she saw me the same day. She was kind and listened to my concern of the new rash. She prescribed 2 antibiotics, for possible cellulitis but also ordered a mammogram and ultrasound for the next day. Those came back “normal”. Fast forward through the weekend and my breast is swollen, the area is larger (maybe a tad larger than a 50 cent piece) and my whole boob itches. I was able to see my dermatologist today and she agreed to biopsy it. I will say that with the progression of the rash and swelling, I am concerned. The antibiotics have not helped. Thanks for listening. I just needed to get that out there. I wish I could post a pic!
