Well, here is my shocker! I thought I had the flu, with a high temp, fever and chills ended up being admitted for IV antibiotics. Had a red swellen breast. The surgeon came in had never seen him before and he said I think you have inflammatory breast cancer and if so then you are looking at chemo, surgery, radiation, more chemo and on and on it goes. You not only suffer from this terrible disease your family suffers and your friends. This is a very aggressive kind of breast cancer and there is no long term survival here!! I was in the hospital alone at the time and he told me this 4 times in 3 days!!! The nurses were all upset over how he handled it with me. The supervisor who I knew told me don't come here for your treatments get out of the area!!! Can you imagine? I lived with these words for months and thought I would never get them off my mind. I never saw again him once I left the hospital my choice as I could not deal with him. Because he never heard from me I got a certified letter from him telling me what he recommended for treatment for me. This was to cover his butt!!! I don't know where he ever went but he ended up leaving this area that was a relief because I was scared to death that I would run into him in the hospital. I felt like he put a curse on me. hugs, Sandy
