Hi,

I had high grade DCIS in 2019, treated with lumpectomy and radiotherapy.  Annual mammograms for 5 years were clear,  last one (clear too) in July 2025.

Just before Christmas (2025) I noticed skin changes on nipple in same breast and very quickly a lump too. Attended GP and got two week referral. 

Now have two lumps confirmed as grade 3, ER8, PR8 HER2 +1, invasive breast cancer involving the skin.  ( Although staging scans appeared all clear)

Mastectomy (and reconstruction) due in March. 

Other treatment to follow that, as required 

Biopsy confirmed recurrence still hard to spot on 3D mammograms/ultrasound and CT scans.

So can I feel reassured by the staging scans or not? 

Any ideas?
