can anyone clarify this for me.
where's REX? "i have grouped microcalcifications bilaterally which are largely unchanged" when compared to my previous 3 yrs. good thing i know. however, there is a "cluster of more pleomorphic calcifications in the left breast, upper outer quadrant which does not appear to be stable in comparison to older films". i know IF there is cancer that it's more likely to happen in the upper outer quadrant. what i don't understand is what pleomorphic means. i went to the hospital today to medical records to p/u this report after i got a call that they want to redo the images on that side. i go back fri. i'm not panicking but i am concerned, especially since i've been on oral methotrexate since last Nov. ps... why do people cut in front of a person in a chair? it was my turn several times, like to get on the elevator, and someone cut me off at the pass. this is so irritating. and in a hospital no less. people are nicer to me in the carpy grocery store. anyway. thanks for any advice you may know.

Well, that's a little scary, dear Judy, but remember your head and lean on your professional experience to think clearly and take advantage of all the expertise available to you.
I found this short explanation: "Indeterminate pleomorphic calcifications that are considered suspicious ("BI-RADS 4") are more often benign than malignant. Cancer is detected in the biopsy in about 15-20%." If you will feel more comfortable with a biopsy, then make sure you get one. I'll pray about this.
