Hi Natwitts. I’m bayside Melbourne too. Diagnosed 31 st July, so just ahead of you. Stage 3 I THINK I’m grade 2. Invasive ductal . Mammogram found it in one node.
Hat PET, further ultrasound, and bone scan. I am so lucky it hadn’t spread elsewhere. I had an MRI on both breasts, it was my second opinion doc who requested it. She wanted to be certain it wasn’t in the other breast, particularly as my gals were lumpy. Personally I didn’t mind at all....I wanted them to have all the info that they needed to make the best decision. (disclosure -I am a medical scientist so that’s how I roll anyways!) ;) The MRI revealed the tumour was bigger than they thought, and in one more node. But not in the other breast , which was a bit of piece of mind tbh.
Where are you having your treatment done?
