I HAD BREAST CANCER 9 YEARS AGO, AND EVERYTHING HAS BEEN FINE, I DID 8 ROUNDS OF CHEMO, AND 33 ROUNDS OF RADIATION, BUT YESTERDAY I WENT FOR MY MAMOGRAMS AND THEY CALLED THIS MORNING AND WANT ME TO COME IN BECAUSE THEY SAW A NODULE THAT THEY WANT TO CHECK OUT IN MY RIGHT BREAST, I HAD BREAST CANCER IN MY LEFT BREAST, WHAT IS A NODULE???
A nodule is a lesion observed on your mammogram other than normal breast tissue. It can be benign or malignant. Your radiologist may like to have further images called spot films of the breast to characterize it further. It will require FNAC (fine needle aspiration cytology) for evolution. Please discuss it with your doctor.
