Hi recently I had my first yearly mammogram following lumpectomy and radiation for stage one IDC.  Unfortunately the radiologist found calcifications.  I was therefore referred for a vacuum assisted biopsy via mammogram.   This was done 3 weeks after finding the calcifications it was difficult to find a radiologist to carry this out.  The night of the biopsy I had a major bleed into the breast.  I was admitted to hospital for 3 days and no treatment given.  Both the doctors in the ER and my breast surgeon stated they hadn't seen anything like this before.  Now 3 weeks later I have 3 large haematomas in my breast and I cannot proceed with the lumpectomy my surgeon wants to carry out on the the intermediate grade dcis I was diagnosed with.   My dilemma is do I ask the surgeon to evacuate the clots.  My breast is so deformed and heavy it would be a relief to do something about it.  My surgeon is seeking advice from colleagues.   I think if I wait for it to absorb it will take a very long time.  Has anyone else gone through this.   I have a lot of pressure in the breast and concerned what it might do to underlying tissue..  Thanks for reading this far.
