Hi everyone,
I have my one stop stop appt on the 22nd although they are desperately trying to find a cancellation for me since I have a small back op on the 20th and it’ll be very difficult for me to move or even sit. So hopefully I’ll get a call to come in sooner
Ive been waiting 3 weeks so far and the more I understand BC and different symptoms associated with certain types - the most I’m concerned about lobular BC. Now it might turn out to be nothing or another type of BC but most of my symptoms fit lobular and these have been getting worse for months.
My question is for those who were diagnosed with lobular BC, what symptoms or signs did you initially have?
Symptoms for me have been thickening, even some areas where there are hard “knots”, my breast has enlarged, it hangs low, my nipple now most of the time almost points completely downwards like a weight is that last 1/3rd of the breast. It’s heavy, it’s drooping a lot. My aerola has gotten SO much bigger and is even starting to have a crease pull it on the areola itself. My nipple reacts a lot slower than my other. I do have thickening in the other breast but I’d say not nearly as bad as the problem boob. All of this has been slowly getting worse since late aug. I have had blood tests that shows zero infection.
I’m only 35 and I’ve heard some people don’t get treated great because they are on the younger side.. but I’ve waited since august to see if it would go away and it’s just gotten worse and worse to the point im really concerned now.
