My mother is being diagnosed with breast cancer which is "infiltrating mammary carcinoma" (invasive) as per biopsy report she is done with her lumpectomy. First thing I want to know about is after 1 month of her surgery their is light redness on the area of the breast and very little warm sensation. What should we do to treat it and if its not necessary can it be left or cured untreated? Secondly. After lumpectomy biopsy report suggest she is having infiltrating mammary carcinoma with er and pr positive 10% and her 2 negative score 0 and "pt2n0" size of tumor was 4�3�3 she is 43 and she has menopause at the age of 36 have 3 children age 20,17,14 .with this info we have consulted Dr. (medical oncologist at hospital, mathura) and he advised us a "ki 67" test to be done so that he decide further treatment he was saying if ki67 report was good enough then my mother may not get chemotherapy and only radiation and hormonal treatment for 10 years will be enough. We are waiting for ki 67 report which we are expecting will come in upcoming 3 to 4 days. I just want a second opinion of yours. Please respond as soon as possible. thank you.
