Dense breast tissue and what it conceals.

My recent lumpectomy revealed multiple tumours that did not show on mammogram or ultrasound. Manual palpation led to a core biopsy and on to lumpectomy.

I am awaiting results of a follow up MRI after the pathology report post lumpectomy and will be discussing with my surgeon further surgery and treatment. I am daunted by the thought as I have been busy researching and translating the results of my lumpectomy pathology. I am an inveterate student and feel more able to cope with what is to come if I understand what has eventuated up to now.

Not my favourite 79th birthday surprise!
