Hi BM2026
I was diagnosed with Classical LCIS and widespread calcifications. I also had very dense breasts.
For the LCIS, I was put on monitoring with annual mammograms. I was also having periodical ultrasounds.
At 47 years old, I was diagnosed with invasive ductal cancer (not lobular) - HER2+ and HR+. The diagnosis happened because I felt a lump some 11 months after a clear mammogram and 8 months after a clear ultrasound. I ended up having chemo, surgery, targeted therapy and now hormone therapy.
Hopefully this doesn't scare you. But getting a second opinion is an excellent idea - there is no harm in it.
All the best and feel free to ask any questions xx
