What does this really mean breast radiologist report

Hi, can any nurse or brest professional explain what a grade 4 tissue result means with level D density throughout..

I've looked on Google which has just scared me more !!

All I've been told is that it's very concerning for cancer & have been booked in with a breast sugeon to discuss my last biopsy results taken one week ago.

Help & advise please as I'm scared to death very worried. My sppointment is tomorrow & I don't know enough. What do I ask?

  • Hi March_Hare,
    Just a quick message hoping your appointment with the surgeon went as well as possible. You will probably feel much better once you have a treatment plan.

  • Confirmed invasive breast cancer but need more biopsies & contrast mammograms & tracing for spread etc in both breasts & lymphs so really don't feel better as no plan yet and so very stressful as 2 weeks to get back the results. This all started 14 weeks ago & it's been extremely difficult with cint tests ^ awaiting results. I'm now on my 3rd set of biopsies...is this normal?

  • Such as stressful time for you. The waiting is horrible. Especially when you do not have a treatment plan yet. But you will get through this.
    I am not a professional. But biopsies provide the medics with much more information, compared with, say, relying on scans and blood tests.
    It sounds likes they are taking very good care of you, which is great. But this doesn't change the fact that the waiting is awful. 
    Wishing you the very best. x Harry
