Hi all.
I’ve proudly been off this forum for over a year.
This is a post regarding my wife and not me.
She has two bruises on her breast. They’re not painful, they’re not from trauma, and they don’t seem to be going.
She googled, and it brought up Inflammatory Breast Cancer. Her sister has suffered with breast cancer at her exact age so it’s a big worry in the household right now. IBC is very aggressive and unexplained bruises are a symptom.
Her bruises are brown in colour and she is also 20 weeks pregnant. We called the doctor and they booked her in for Tuesday. Tuesday seems so far from now and if it is IBC that’s a long time to leave an aggressive cancer. Or, is it nothing?
We’re after a bit of reassurance, I’m struggling to reassure her but inside I’m not reassured myself.
Thanks everyone.
