Hi,
I hope someone has some advice for me as I'm at the end of my rope with an inflamed, painful left breast. I have had almost 4 weeks of antibiotics and have been referred to the breast clinic where I had mammogram, ultrasound and biopsy..
However, no-one has told me what will happen if this isn't cancer. I tick all the symptoms for IBC, but I know those are also the same for mastitis, but why haven't the antibiotics worked? What happens next? At the moment if feels as if I've just got to go on putting up with it and I can't bear it. Awful pain, swollen armpit, redness of the skin, itching, heat, changed shape and size - I can't get many bra on, even a soft one.
Any help appreciated.
