   • What type of breast cancer do I have?’ Breast cancers aren’t all the same. Doctors classify them in a number of different ways, starting with where the cancer cells originate.
   • How big is my tumor?’ The size of your tumor is another important factor in your course of treatment. Your doctor uses the size of your tumor to “stage,” or further categorize, your cancer (explained in detail in the next question).
   • What stage is my cancer?’ Cancer staging is a way of classifying your cancer, with Stages 0 through IV reflecting the size of your tumor and the extent to which it has metastasized (spread).
   • Is the cancer in my lymph nodes?’ One of the most important predictors of the severity of breast cancer is whether it has spread to your lymph nodes.

   • Infección mamaria. Las infecciones mamarias pueden ocurrir en cualquier parte de la mama. Pueden ser tan simples como enrojecimiento e hinchazón o abscesos más complicados que causan fiebre y dolor severo.
   • Mamografía anormal. Recibir una llamada de que su mamografía de detección anual es anormal es bastante común y no siempre indica cáncer. Una anomalía solo significa que su médico ha encontrado algo que necesita una mirada más de cerca.
