Results from MRI

Ambiguous, as always:

Dear Ms. Home:

Your MRI breast w wo contrast bilateral performed on May 22, 2013, shows the need for further evaluation. The Radiologist has recommended a right breast follow-up diagnostic mammogram.

My guess is that there's LCIS in the right breast as well. And since it doesn't show on a mammogram, this will be another exercise in futility. This whole business is tedious. I can see why people might ignore their health issues.

  1. Tedious and more, I bet. I can't believe they order a diagnostic that doesn't reveal the thing they would likely suspect.

  2. From what I was told previously, the MRI will just show if something abnormal is there - not what it might be. Could be nothing. Could be something. sigh
