    If I were to get out my

    If I were to get out my print-out of the findings of my surgery, I think I remember there being mention of the signet ring.  I haven't given that much thought because I have dealt aggressivelt with my bc -- double mastectomy, chemo, and radiation therapy.   I currently am taking tamoxifen.

    If you are asking for advice, I would suggest going after your bc aggressively.  Why mess with it more times than you have to?  That is what I told myself.

    Signet Ring Cells

    My biopsy in 1994 showed that I had signet ring cells.  Mine were mixed ductal and lobular with signet ring cells.  I never asked what it meant and 20 years later, I don't think I will.  I believe that they resemble a signet ring when looking under micoscope.

    You can report to us.
