Hi! I am 46 with history of hysterectomy. I’m not on any hormone treatments. I have not been diagnosed with breast cancer, but I have had 2 left breast biopsies, both which came back Fibroadenoma. I go back at the end of December for my 6 month MRI f/u. The first MRI had allll the characteristics of cancer….washout, irregular borders, etc…. BIRADS 4. My lymph nodes were “fluffy” on the left side as well, but they weren’t biopsied because they looked “fine” on the ultrasound. Has anyone went back for 6 month f/u MRI, only to find out you do have breast cancer?? I have a lot of aches in my left arm and breast area that has been going off and on since April 2023. My heart has been checked, so it’s not that. Also, has been progressively getting worse in the last 6 months. Has anyone else have this happen? Thank you so much!

    If it were me I'd get a 2nd opinion. Go to a different Cancer Center. Have a fresh set of eyes evaluate all data and perhaps a new MRI and other tests as necessary. Explain your concerns in detail as well as all symptoms.

    Mine only show during MRI scan, nothing shows on mammogram or ultrasound. because its 50/50 could be benign or cancer, dr. suggested MRI guide biopsy, if still not enough tissue to exam, then surgical to remove, but first they will need insert marker on the area. I was diagnosed breast cancer April 2022.
