I've been posting on the IBC forum because my breast presented that way, been to so many doctors and I finally got fed up and went to the mayo clinic, It's been difficult because I'm 27 and pregnant everyone thought too young and due to pregnancy, had my first biopsy done it came out as chronic inflammation but the mayo wanted thier pathologist to look at it and wednesday night they called me three times in 20 minutes and had me down the next morning, I was told I have atypical proliferation of vascular channels and they think i could have angiosarcoma that day they did a surgical biopsy because the pathologist didnt feel comfortable making a diagnosis with such a small sample, I'm now waiting untill monday for my results. I'm not sure if i will even find anyone on here with this cancer I know its rare. I hate the waiting

    Christina, so sorry you are going through this!  How long has this been going on?  How far along in your pregnancy are you?  I know the waiting is unbearable, going through it myself. How did this all start for you?

    It's been a couple months, 29 weeks as of today, so many doctors thought it was from the pregnancy but I felt it was more, I have the peu d'orange that eventually hardened and spread, and a redish brown color. they put me on antibiotics twice and steriods, neither helped. I'm still praying it is just the pregnancy. But the pathology results as of yet are concerning. Are you waiting also, I hate the wait monday will be a long day.

    Christina -Have you gotten your results?  Yes, im still playing the waiting game.  My first round of biopsys came back good - but i go for another surgical biopsy on Monday.  Let me know how you made out.
