Biopsy

I learned to always question drs. If there is anything on a test, I want to know why and what it is. I don't buy this bs we will wait and see. I don't know what bald means for a mass, but the biopsy will give you answers and demand imediate diagnosis. BC is very aggressive, shoot all cancer is. My tumor was found on a low ct scan and would not have been found on a mammogram, they did an immediate biopsy and I had surgery 3 weeks later. It did not spread, triple negative, no chemo, 22 radiation treatments, no lymph node involvement. I really don't get this new doctor wait and see. No I will not wait this is my life!

@martu any more news? I hope that your results were benign.

January '22, I had something show up on mammogram and they did ultrasound to follow up. After that, they said it was benign and they'd keep an eye on it. December '22, I changed GYNs and my new one understood with my family history that I didn't have peace about it so she ordered a breast MRI. It was supposed to happen February '23 but the day before got canceled because insurance denied it. My GYN had to do a peer to peer review to get them to approve it and then I couldn't get it done until March 8th. I hated that whole experience but I'm so thankful that my GYN got it approved because that is how they found my cancer and it WAS IN THE OTHER BREAST, not the one I was worried about! MRI guided breast biopsy was done March 21st and I was diagnosed the next day. We caught it early.

I know many doctors hands are tied because of what insurance will cover and not cover. It's so frustrating. My heart hurts for those who don't have someone helping to advocate for them and "fight" insurance for the right diagnostics and treatments.
