Hi everyone. Started about a month ago with extreme itching on the top side of my left breast, a dry patch of skin on the top of my left breast, nipple is very sensitive and my left areola is suddenly bigger than my right. I am 39 years old and never had any issues before. I skipped my GP and went directly to a breast surgeon and lined up an office visit with her and a mammogram and ultrasound directly following. She decided on a puncture biopsy and canceled the mammogram and u/s. Not sure if that's a good or bad thing? This was Thursday and they said results will be in by Tuesday. I honestly don't expect good results. When I went to the appointment , I told her I was concerned it was the start of IBC and she said no, but we should screen for Pagets. Very worried and concerned!
