Breast MRI
Hi everyone for those who don’t know my story.. stage 2B lobular carcinoma, one micro deposit in one lymph node Dx Feb ‘19. Currently D9 post mastectomy and axillary clearance. Wondering who was ...
Yes I’m 27...in hindsight I didn’t ask for one and felt so comfortable with this professor once I heard they sometimes happen I didn’t think to ask for an MRI! Hindsight is a beautiful thing isn’t it 😂
I asked for a bilateral the day I was diagnosed and he felt not indicated then and there, best to get to treatment and look at prophylactic surgery later. When it came back as lobular not ductal two days later, I again asked and he said yes future prophylactic probably for the best and we could do my recon all in the one go then, perhaps towards end of 2019 early 2020.
I feel very comfortable with this plan, just now feel there’s surely alot going on in my remaining breast considering the final results from my left.
I’ve managed to get an USS booked on Tuesday to have another look at my right breast. I will ask my nurse to speak to Prof about my concerns and see what he thinks about imaging the other breast sooner rather than later... i will have her specially mention MRI.
Enjoy the weekend ladies x
