Wow, this post was four years ago, pretty much to the day. And, today, I am again, thinking these same thoughts, so it seems appropriate to “reblog” it.
I had a biopsy back in June of a suspicious looking red area (small) on my left breast. My primary care physician did the biopsy and sent it out for testing and the pathology came back benign. I did not realize that “benign” in this case only referred to skin cancer – as in the red spot was not skin cancer.
I saw my oncologist yesterday. She saw the red spot on my left breast and explained that breast cancer can recur in the skin. She further explained that apparently the testing in June should have included testing for breast cancer markers. So now they are running a stain (on the same sample from June) to see if it tests positive for breast cancer. Ugh, sigh. My head was spinning yesterday (and, I confess, much of today).
I appreciate any prayers, good juju, positive vibes, etc., you can send my way.
Hoping for good news.
Much love and peace,
Lisa
