    You can look and look but without a biopsy you wont know for sure.  You have time, get the biopsy.  We are here and we care.

    Hugs,

    Different reasons . . .

    When a mammogram and US show something suspicious it is always best to have it thoroughly checked out.  Only a biopsy of the mass can give you the most accurate diagnosis.  I, too, had a hypoechoic mass with multilobulated margins.  I was re-evaluated after 6 months, and the result was that it is scar tisSue, not a cancerous mass.

    hoping for the best results for you.  After your results, revisit this site for additional help understanding your results.  Doctors are very proactive - sometimes this may seem overwhelming, but they are the professionals who deal with interpreting these tests every day.  If you are confident with your doctor, go with his/her advice.  If you are unsure, seek a second opinion.

    best regards,

    Kathy
