I don't think most Docs would feel that way and you should never hesitate to have something checked out for that reason. It's always better to be safe than sorry when it comes to something that you feel isn't "right" ... You know, no one knows your body better than you. I'm glad things seem to be better today but don't forget that many things won't just "go away" on their own. so if and when something has you worried always have it checked out and don't worry about that "next time". Take care ....
thanks for your reply. yes i agree that going to the doc is the best option but i hate going to docs cos i worry that if it's nothing then the next time they won't take me seriously. i know that sounds nuts. and yes the internet is lethal particularly symtpom checkers. thanks for answering my Q in any case. my breasts are equal temp this morning which puts my mind at rest.
I don't believe that any of the symptoms of IBC would come and go or even subside completely. I will say that some symptoms of IBC are rather insidious and not the fast swelling, red hot breast as is often described. There have been cases where it only appeared as a rash.
Breast pain such as you describe are rarely associated with other types of Breast Cancer. If you are terribly concerned you might consider seeing a Breast Specialist for an opinion or talking with your Primary Care Physician or GYN and request some testing or at the very least a clinical exam. I am usually against too much "searching" on the internet unless you are just looking for the meaning of some of the many medical terms. The information available is so general it rarely can be associated with an individual's situation. Your Dr. is always you best source of information as he/she knows all your medical history and can assess the situation correctly. Don't hesitate to ask questions and describe exactly what is going on just as you have here. Regards .....
