I live overseas, and doctors don’t share information with patients here until they have all their ducks in a row. I got called back after mammogram screening, and then had additional mammograms and ultrasound examinations. He said that something needs a closer examination (I could see lots of white spots in both breasts on the screen, so maybe DCIS?) and I was then sent for an MRI. That’s all I know, but of course I have been turning to Dr Google. Am I right in thinking that they have found cancer, and that the MRI to see if it is invasive or not? I wish they could have explained a little about what is going on! My doctor consultation is next Monday.
