Hi folks, I had a Vacuum-assisted core breast biopsy, about 2 weeks ago. Now I am recalled for a large volume biopsy and am wondering what usually justifies this second biopsy from being done. All I was told was it’s lobular disease they need to look more closely at. Thoughts? Thank you
Hi Heastaic63
It probably means that they haven’t gotten all the information they need to treat your cancer. They like to have all the information about your cancer so that they can decide on the best treatment for your particular type of cancer and to give you the best outcome they can give you.
Wishing you the best of luck with everything.
Beat wishes
