Understanding Precancerous Breast Changes & CA 15-3 Results


Question
..."one focus of osseous metaplasia is seen." Was the wording a Dr. read, out of a surgical pathology report, to diagnose my "precancer".
So do I have breast cancer? Or was it all taken out along with my cist. Dr. did not explain to me.  His only advise, was to keep on checking.
I don't feel any lumps but I do experience some sharp pain occasionally on my breast, both of them. I did a lab test for CA 15-3 resulting 6.50 U/ml  Ref:  0.00-53.00 . PL explain. Thks

Answer
In order to be able to answer your question properly I need to read 1. the ENTIRE pathology report of the biopsy mentioned in your question not just a short quotation from it. 2. The entire mammography report that probably preceded the biopsy. If you can send those here I promise I'll do my very best to answer your question! You can legally - I think, I'm not American - demand copies of those reports from your dr.
