Does it matter?
I have aggressive carcinoma according to the biopsy report. I am booked in for surgery on the 16th Nov.
Since the core biopsy this thing which is supposed to be 2.5cm x 2cm is really growing fast. ...
Saw the surgeon today.
He saw the bruising (about 1/10th of what it was a few weeks ago) from the core biopsy and said the lymph glands that were up have gone down now and it would have been from the biopsy, not the cancer.
The cancer is a little bigger but not to the extent it feels like as the bruising has made a hard clot and would take months to go down.
The smaller lump on the other side of the nipple is a fatty cyst he said and because the tumour and the bruising has taken up so much room, its been pushed up to be noticeable as a swelling.
He said during pre-op next week I will have ultrasound xrays couple of hours after they inject the radioactive dye so anything funny going on with lymph nodes will be highlighted very nicely then.
