Dear Liz,

I had 2 very large cysts in my other breast that they thought were the primary tumors when I had the reocurrance 2 1/2 years ago. They were wrong, I had both a 3 cm and a 2 cm cyst in my breast that were benign, free from cancer.

It probably is a better idea to have the MRI done before surgery so they know what they are dealing with. I don't think a couple of weeks will do harm.

I think inflammatory breast cancer looks more like an inflamation of the tissues almost like an infection rather then an enlargement of the breast.

Have them put you on a waiting list in case someone cancels an appt. you can move up.

Blessing to you from Lu Ann
