Biopsy results are in (somewhat)...

and it was positive. I have breast cancer of sorts. (Deep breath here.) As of right now, I have the better of the forms of breast cancer which is Ductal Carcinoma In Situ. Basically, it is abnormal breast ducts cells. Almost more precancerous than cancerous. The reason I say "as of right now" is that there is another area that they didn't biopsy Friday and want to upon further review of my films. That biopsy is now scheduled for tomorrow morning at 8:30. Will probably know the results of that on Wednesday or so. Not sure of the surgery options available to me and such until this next biopsy is done and until an MRI of both breasts is done looking for anything else lurking around. I'm supposed to see the breast surgeon on Thursday morning. My sister had ILC (invasive lobular carcinoma) which is different. Anyway, I'm doing well as can be expected. I'll keep ya posted. Be good, Kathy
