I'm sorry you're facing this, Heather. What kind of help would you like?

Also, I saw you also posted this as a comment on another thread. It helps a lot if you can keep it in just one (probably this one.) That way anyone who answers you can see your responses as well as other people's. You might delete the comment you made in the other thread.

Just from what you've posted above, it looks like you need a biopsy. Have you had previous surgery on your breast? It mentions scar tissue.

Thank you, I'm new to this community Board and wasn't sure exactly where to post! I guess I was hoping for someone with similar reports or someone that could help me interrupt it better. As you know google is not your friend and now the worrying has went out the roof after that! Have not been scheduled for the biopsy yet, but had DCIS in 2018 with lumpectomy and rads and currently taking arimidex

Heather - if you could go to My PRofile and fill in your previous diagnosis & treatment history, it makes it easier for members to answer. You will have to choose to 'make it public' for other members to see.
