Inflammatory breast cancer new gene alteration
"Hey, aren't you that IBC lady?"
Inflammatory Breast Cancer (IBC) is a rare and highly fatal form of breast cancer that is not typically discovered by mammogram and often occurs prior to standard breast cancer screening age recommendations.
Don't know what IBC is? Don't feel bad, most people are very uneducated about IBC. Our goal is to bring this "orphaned disease" into the limelight and encourage education and funding of research for this highly fatal 200 year old form of breast cancer. Take a few minutes and learn! We need to be educated on this cancer if we are going to save lives.
Inflammatory breast cancer symptoms may include:
• Breast swelling, which one breast is suddenly larger than the other • "bug bite" that doesn't heal • Breast that feels warm to touch & may look infected• Itching or shooting pain• A dimpling of the breast skin that looks like an orange peel (peau d’orange)• Thickening of the skin • Flattened or discolored nipple • Swelling in underarm • Might feel lump, however lumps are not common.
