Today we found out that the MRI showed that the tumor on the left breast is 6.1 centimeters, which is bigger than the 1.8 as originally thought. With 5.0 being the deciding factor given by my surgeon. I will have to have a mastectomy of the left breast.
This morning we went to the breast care center, where I had an ultrasound and a mammogram. Then we went to radiology and had a MRI guided biopsy. Actually, they performed 2 biopsies and to that I say better safe than sorry. They said I will have the 'mother of all bruises'. Have to wait and see, for now sitting here locked and loaded with ice that is........
Then we went back to the breast care center for a post biopsy mammogram. We also got to see the MRI from Monday and that was interesting to see that the tumor in the left one was very bright.
We are doing great tonight, just exhausted.
Here's to a calm and soothing weekend.....
