A member asked:
I've had a tumor in my right breast for about 2 years and high chance of brca. doc says just to return every 6 months. should i get a second opinion?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Tumor size: If the "tumor" has not changed in size over two years, doubt it's much of a concern, but if you are concerned, a second opinion may place your mind at ease.
