Biopsy report

Great news it benign! I have had several biopsies in the past. An option is to get an opinion from a breast surgeon if hearing all is well from another party would help put you at ease. I visited a breast surgeon many times just to get her input on it and to have her look at the sonos/mri and to give me an exam. It helped me to hear her say she concurred and didn't think there was anything more to be done about it.

If it was me, I'd just wait six months. But as beach2beach suggests, you can always ask for a second opinion if you feel worried.

Plantbased,

Without worrying too much, I'd watch for any changes in how that area feels or looks, and promptly report those, if any. Else, I'd just wait the 6 mo.

Best wishes.

If you don't feel that your medical questions or uncertainties have been addressed, consider contacting the dr who originally referred you to have the test done.

Best wishes of good health.

So if it were me that got this report, I’d give my dr a call or schedule a quick appointment to talk about what their thinking is on the follow up and why they think you need another mri. Sometimes, if you have dense or extremely dense breast tissue they like to do mri’s That’s what I have to do because they can’t see anything in my breasts very well. Fromvyour report it looks like you have a rare calcification pattern in your breast so it sounds no like they want to keep an eye on that. I’m sorry your drs haven’t been very clear with you

Hi there. I think some of us are having trouble helping because we are dealing with breast cancer, and what you have is a benign condition. However, If you put "fibrendenomatoid" in the search field you will find some women you can PM for advice. From what I've read you should schedule an appointment with an experienced oncologist if you are at all concerned about waiting six months. It's really your choice how aggressive to be about getting medical advice, which we can't give you since we're not doctors.

You can also get the MRI report and read it closely yourself. Here are a list of relevant terms:

GOOD: Oval; parallel; circumscribed; anechoic; hyperechoic; isoechoic; posterior enhancement or good through-transmission; avascular; macrocalcifications include pop corn, large rod like, rim, milk-of-calcium.

BAD: Irregular; non-parallel (can also be written as "taller-than-wide"); not-circumscribed margins includes indistinct, angular, microlobulated, and spiculated; hypoechoic; posterior shadowing; architectural distortion; internal vascularity; microcalcifications including amorphous, coarse heterogeneous, branching, fine pleomorphic.

Hope that helps somewhat.
