SO sorry to see you here @Mrs_Katie_06 .... and glad you've found us xx
ILC is different from 'other' types of Breast Cancer as it doesn't 'present' as a tumour as such - as it is more 'thread-like' and is usually more difficult to detect on Mammograms & ultrasound.
Check out the My Journey 'kit' here - There should be some docs on everything, including questions xx

Consider recording your appointments too - to go back over later on, if you'd like xx
