Just diagnosed Breast cancer second time 30 years after , , waiting on surgery, , has anyone had positive rheumatoid factor, and livedo reticularis rash , in connection with the breast cancer or autoimmune rheumatoid factor and hasimotos
My tumor is grade 1 , 1 centimeter er/pr positive, ki67 5%
Worried if metastasis or just coincidental and I have both at same time,
Anyone have similar experience
Hiya Cardinal, I was diagnosed with BC last July and have Rheumatoid Arthritis, not sure if that’s the same as a positive Rheumatoid factor, I guess it is?
Rheumatoid factor positive can be Rheumatoid arthritis but sometimes can be breast cancer metastasis, I'm trying to see if my RA factor and livedo reticularis , can be unrelated to Breast cancer diagnosis
