The morning of August 18th 2022 I felt a lump on my right breast. I immediately went to my OBYN's office to get it checked. They thought it was a cyst but to put my mind at ease sent me to get a mammogram and an ultrasound. At the ultrasound the Radiologist came in and told me he sees a mass and I would need a biopsy. I was terrified! A week later I had my biopsy. On September 1st 2022 biopsy results came back and showed I had cancer. The Biopsy initially diagnosed the cancer as DCIS, however, since there was a mass I need further testing. Three biopsies, an MRI, and numerous Dr. appts, I was diagnosed with Invasive Ductal Carcinoma, Er+, Pr+, Her2-. I was then scheduled for a mastectomy, 4 round of Chemo, 16 rounds of radiation. I finished chemo in February of 2023 and finished radiation in March of 2023.
