I will continue taking my Chemo pill Ameridex 1 mg daily..and be re-examined in two months. The goal being hoping it will shrink more..and have a lumpectomy and save that breast..which will mean no singular massectomy and no double massectomy. I do understand with medicene and cancer things can change. We consider this a good sign and will consider this a free pass ....for now!

Twin Lakes Imaging, MR, BREAST BILATERAL, March 05, 2012.
FINDINGS:
BI-RADS Category 6 - KNOWN BREAST MALIGNANCY. LEFT BREAST.
Comparison is made to patient's prior breast MRI from 3/2012. The patient has been on chemotherapy.
There is significant reduction in the bulk of malignancy in the left breast since the prior study. For
instance, the center of the lesion measures almost a centimeter in size. It measured almost 2.3 cm in AP
diameter previously. The inner portion of it measures 3.5 cm in AP diameter. It measured almost 6.7 cm
previously. The outer portion of it measures almost 3.4 cm. It measured almost 4.6 cm previously.
SUMMARY:
There is overall approximately 60% to 70% reduction in bulk of the abnormal
enhancement since the prior examination.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
SURGICAL EXCISION LEFT BREAST.
