Specific type of breast mass related to breast cancer?
Hello, I’m 20 years old and I have a very firm and fixed breast mass. My doctor seemed to be extremely serious that it might be cancerous. She said, “It’s very rare for a person your age to have breast cancer…however it doesn’t feel good”. She sent me immediatly over to schedule an ultrasound. Is there any specific type of breast mass that is associated with cancer more than others (say squishy and moving rather than firm and fixed)? I’m pretty scared and I would really appreciate your answers. Thanks!

Are there any clinical trials being done that could type and screen cancer samples to specific chemotherapies?
Sort of like how blood is typed and screened. If a patient knew how their cells reacted to a specific regimen, it would save time going down a long list of chemotherapies. If a sample is taken and tested before chemo is scheduled to start, a patient could go right to that specific drug match and benefit. My mother has breast cancer and is on her 3rd drug combo. We keep going down a list of compatible drugs for her cancer type not knowing which will be a good long term match for her.
