Hello, my sister discovered she had a breast cancer in March 24, she had a successful lumpectomy in March 28, the pathology report said that tumor was 22 x 23 x 18 mm, has 5 involved lymph nodes, ER strong positive ( score 8 ), PR negative, HER2 negative...  after that she did a pet/CT scan in May and the opinion of the radiologist written in the report was " patient with right breast cancer after surgery showing no evidence of hypermetabolic lesion distinctive for loco-regional resudal/recurrence of metastatic disease. I also attached the detailed results of the pet/ct itself. Now does it recommend for her to start chemotherapy or to do oncotype dx test first and btw she had 25 sessions of radiotherapy, so after the surgery ( in March) we had the radiotherapy in ( June) and now we don't know we have to start chemotherapy or do this test first since she has ER positive, HER2 negative and she's postmenopausal. She is 55 yrs old. Now I now your opinion, your advice and recommendations for us. And if she did the test and the result is law and chemotherapy is still recommended for her can she take at least a less intensive chemotherapy regimen.

If the sun is strong, the use of sunglasses protects better from the sunshine. Nevertheless, the sun's rays are really dangerous, so natural means should make you. Don't forget that a wide-brim hat and sunglasses used together provide a shade. Is it true that the form of your outfit can create feelings of hot flashes? Is this a sort of tonic that you look like? For example, a nude top might result in stares from others. As for the effects of laser hair removal on leg veins, it vary, but typically the veins respond very well.

1. Tumor Characteristics: Type: The tumor is identified as an invasive ductal carcinoma, NST (No Special Type), located in the upper outer quadrant of the breast. Grade: It’s classified as Grade 3, which is high grade, based on a Nottingham histologic score of 9. Size: The tumor measures 7.0 x 5.0 x 4.6 cm. 2. Additional Findings: DCIS (Ductal Carcinoma In Situ): Present with a "comedo type" pattern, which is aggressive, with high nuclear grade and central necrosis. Lymphovascular Invasion: Detected, suggesting cancer cells may be spreading to nearby lymph or blood vessels. Microcalcifications: Absent. 3. Margins: One of the specimen's margins shows invasive carcinoma, meaning the cancer is close to or touching the edge of the removed tissue. Other margins are 1-2 mm away from the invasive carcinoma. Impression: This is a high-grade invasive ductal carcinoma, meaning it is an aggressive form of breast cancer.

I am 29 year female and having pain I'm my right breast not on the whole breast only one side and when I press pain is more .

Female | Lima Bailung

Unilateral breast pain or the heavier side of the breast, when you press in this particular, can be caused by mastitis. Mastitis describes a situation where a milk duct becomes blocked or infected. Further symptoms may involve feeling hot, red, or swollen in the same area. It's crucial to see a healthcare provider who can make the correct diagnosis and treatment. They might give you antibiotics, or do compressions to reduce the pain and swelling with the last alternative. Self-care measures can be an adjunct to medical treatment, thus it should be a priority to seek guidance from a professional in healthcare.

I had 2 lumps ( fiberdenoma ) on my left breast and it's easily movable ...and I found the lump on November 2023 now also it has not gone ...now I was feeling a lump on my right breast also ...and it also easily movable...not having any health issues anything like that

Female | 22

Fibroadenomas are the predominant cause of these lumps. They are caused by hormonal changes and they are not cancer. They can be discovered on their own due to fluctuating hormones when a woman's period cycles. They are painless, moveable, and without any problem. To be perfectly sure, one should go to the hospital and get it examined thoroughly. Even if it is frequent the hospital may demand additional tests. Keep in mind not to freak out but you'll require a professional check for any changes in your breasts that are unaccountable by logic.

Can axillary fibroadenoma be treated with medicine? If not what is the process and cost of surgery? Is there any chance of future malignancy

Female | 24

Treatment is by surgery and the specimen will be sent for Histopathological examination for confirming diagnosis. Previous benign breast pathologies have slightly higher risk than general population, though the standard screening protocol of SBE and CBE should be followed. You can connect to me for further information. --- Dr. Akash Dhuru (Surgical Oncologist)

I FEEL I HAVE LUMP IN MY LEFT BREAST .. WHAT MEDICAL PROCEDURE I HAVE TO FOLLOW FOR CHECKUP PLEASE HELP

Female | 26

Surely, you are concerned about the bump in your left breast. An oncologist should check it out. To identify the nature of the lump, the doctor might perform a physical examination, an ultrasound, or a mammogram. The lumps in the breast can be due to many different causes, from harmless cysts to more serious problems. Remember, early detection is the main thing, so don't hesitate to go for a check-up.
