49. Unnecessary surgery on the right breast

from Breast Cancer Life · host Natalie D'Itri

In 2023, when I had my cancer surgery, there was a non-cancerous spot on the right that was recommended for a biopsy. At the time, I did not ask any questions about why take out =NORMAL! breast tissue? Hindsight is 2020. On screening MRIs for the right breast in 2024, the same "non-mass enhancement" that was seen in 2023 (before any breast surgery) keeps showing up in the imaging report.   The content of this podcast is not intended to substitute professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.
