What Causes Red Spots On The Right Breast With Raised Mole On Arm?
Question: My Internal Medicine Dr said that on my last mammogram I had signs that I should have a different test next year when I have a mammogram. I do not understand why I should wait a year for this test to determine if there is a chance of breast cancer. I have a history of lung cancer they removed the lower lobe of my right lung and some limp nodes in 2001. Because of the action of the Doctors I never had to have radiation or chemotherapy. I do not know if I should consult a cancer doctor and pay for the test myself or wait for a year. I have three red spots on my right breast and mole on my right arm that has changed in the last three months. I am 72 years old.
