2 years agoOn 10/5 I got my Bi-rads 5. On 10/13 I got my pathology confirmed IDC/ICL 2.6cm mass. Axillary lymph node with rare (<20) B3 cells which as far as I can tell from research is a category for benign entities that could progress badly (and I wonder if that could be from the flu shot I got a few days prior.) On 10/18 I met with Oncologist who said it was stage 2 and she said the rare B3 is odd so need more imaging. I have MRI 10/21 & Cat/Bone 10/24 followed by surgeon appt on 10/24. Is anyone else out there like me?
