Breast MRI: Do You Have Breast Cancer or at High Risk

[@nancynunez6837]

Had my Breast MRI 3 days ago, next week breast core breast biopsy stereotactic and a breast fine needle aspiration. Staying positive. I have a Family history, maternal side of the family.

Glad youre doing it in that order. That makes sense to me. My mammogram showed calcifications and i was told i needed a biopsy. So i had that last week and it came back as dcis. NOW, im told i need an MRI. And im doing the MRI tomorrow. But i feel like they shouldve done the mri first. I feel like the biopsy may have made a non invasive, contained cancer, invasive by poking at it? Doesnt that make sense? Ugh. Live and learn. Im praying its not invasive and ill be praying for you too AND all other people with cancer. God Bless.

Hi…I hope u all r OK Nov.2022 ? 🤔😕✨🤲🏻✨

[@lindamastropietro4429]

Good luck to you

[@lindamastropietro4429]

@@YT-ml8gzMe too. My radiologist said she’s very concerned.

[@lindamastropietro4429]

I have bench press and my first mammogram didn’t show anything, but I was called back for another test by another radiologist in the same office they found calcifications that form a circle so I have to go for further testing probably surgery. My half sister had a double mastectomy and she died from cancer. I don’t know if that would affect me or not.

I’m still waiting for medical insurance which my doctor and a department in the clinic speeding the process bc my surgeon wants me to have reconstruction.. the cancer is HR2 estrogen and progesterone positive . I was and im nervous to wait a month

[@queen-servant-of-allah2822]

Excellent video thank u so much doc I did my MRI and CT scan today 🥰❤️

[@fatenhajj-ahmad2713]

New diagnosed with breast cancer after a biopsy. Did the MRI but showed nothing? Does that mean go with the surgery even though the MRI showed nothing or is there any other imaging or testing to do?

[@jeojackson534]

There is only one reason to do an MRI before a lumpectomy and that is if there is statistical evidence that this specific MRI captures more cancer cells than would have been taken out with just a lumpectomy. I cant take it for granted when a MRI manufacturer and a surgeon says its a good idea. Your video is very instructive Doc, but please give us numbers too.

[@BreastCancerSchoolforPatients]

Thank you for watching the videos and the feedback!

[@lindamastropietro4429]

What if I’m told I have a cyst but I don’t feel comfortable with that diagnosis I do have dense breast and a history of breast cancer in my family. What’s the next step?

[@alicecrisostomofaelyab1148]

I am going to have a breast MRI I would like to ask if needed to remove my dental braces thanks

[@girlanonymous]

i think you should contact the place who's doing your MRI for the answer. They'd know best since they do MRI on patients daily.

[@maggieg5719]

Great question! What was the answer?

[@sharon268]

My twin had biopsy that came back Atypical hyperplasias and now I have a 5mm mass and a echo focus left breast it’s been a terrible experience the radiologist decision skip the diagnostic mammogram just do ultrasound that’s not what my physician wanted he still wanted the diagnostic mammogram so I schedule myself for the diagnostic mammogram and hospital imaging supervisor of scheduling calls me and scolds me like a child I told her your not involved in my care it’s not your business fast forward I just received an apology letter from the hospital and now she has been reprimanded for the insensitivity, I see the surgeon Monday to decide to get a breast MRI since I also have history of calcifications 2014 and now 8 years later the two new findings makes sense to get MRI and then biopsy

[@eazykkopalamusic401]

I want to go and have mri for my breast , im under 35 and they think mammographic test is not necessary, but I have dimpling with some soft lumps I don't want to be late. Should I go head dr

[@feaudaz5252]

How about if the MRI results come back clean? Do I still have to have the mastectomy? It only shows some cysts I found out results yesterday, Tuesday March 2, 2021. I am scheduled for March 9th. What would you suggest?

[@audrinarivera566]

Hello, I'd like to know if anyone else out there has the CHEK2 Gene Mutation? It's very rare (1% gen. pop.).

[@DQ45]

Just got my genetic testing and chek2 positive.

[@nancybee250]

Just saw this question. My daughter was diagnosed with breast cancer before 30 so she had a genetic panel down and was positive for Chek2. Turns out I was positive and my son and my 91-year-old mother who’s never had any form of cancer thank goodness!

[@fahmchao5061]

If your identical twin sister has breast cancer at 32 but does not carrie the gene that cause breast cancer, does that still count as family history or puts me at even higher risk for having breast cancer in my life time?

[@lorib5398]

I was wondering if my twin sisters cystic breasts added to my risk.(Fraternal twin)

[@sharon268]

Farm Yes !!! It does My twin had biopsy that came back Atypical hyperplasias and now I have a 5mm mass and a echo focus left breast it’s been a terrible experience the radiologist decision skip the diagnostic mammogram just do ultrasound that’s not what my physician wanted he still wanted the diagnostic mammogram so I schedule myself for the diagnostic mammogram and hospital imaging supervisor of scheduling calls me and scolds me like a child I asked her your not involved in my care it’s not your business fast forward I just received an apology letter from the hospital and now she has been reprimanded I see the surgeon Monday decide to get a breast MRI since I also have history calcifications 2014

[@zuuzsh.4373]

When doctors say High risk,,,,does that means We have already Cancer 😮😬😓😥😨😰!?

[@detectivefiction3701]

No, why would it mean that? What it means is that a close relative of yours had breast cancer, so there might be a genetic component that affects you.

[@jessh2656]

No. Just means you have a higher risk for breast cancer

[@aandimeneseslongno1202]

[@ali987-t4e]

Alhamdolillah, i can treat the patient of chest cancer, lump/chest pain with 100℅ result in 25 to 30 days by the grace of Allah. Before spending so much troubles and money, consider it a necessity. You can whatsApp [phone]

[@Умничка51]

Pease, don't get depressed or anxious, it's already there. It's ok to cry but pray to god so he will help to go through it. Hope

[@sOnlight67]

More money in the doctors pockets.🤔

[@nancybee250]

My daughter had a breast lump at age 28 and was told for 2 years it was just a cyst per mammogram results. An MRI could have saved her life.

[@christyb7455]

Very rude comment! These tests are saving more lives every day!

[@pradnya3820]

​@@nancybee250 how is she now?

[@nancybee250]

My daughter’s breast cancer was triple positive with a chek2 mutation. Because she had a delayed diagnosis. (due to medical incompetence/arrogance) she had six rounds of chemo double mastectomy, and 12 rounds of immunotherapy. It’s been two years since she is doing well but honestly i’m not comfortable with the current oncology perspective that just says we finished your treatment but we’re not gonna scan you to make sure your disease-free. I feel my daughter received good oncology care, but aftercare seems hit and miss.
