I have been working with Inflammatory Breast Cancer advocates all over the world for the past ten years. My goal in life is for everyone .. not just the general public but the medical community as well to be aware of IBC. The Inflammatory Breast Cancer Foundation was founded by volunteers who have been touched by IBC in some way. We are working diligently to educate others that this most aggressive form of breast cancer rarely presents itself with a lump. IBC is rarely detected with a mammogram therefore, the importance of ... "Knowing the symptoms of ibc and prompt diagnosis is Vital for Survival" and You don't have to have a lump to have breast cancer." IBC mimics mastitis which is a benign (non-cancerous) infection BUT without a fever. Any rash on your breast, or what appears to be a bruise or insect bite that doesn't dissipate after creams and salves have been applied, please ask your doctor to rule out IBC. With so much information on breast cancer, people still are not aware that you have to not only examine your breasts but LOOK FOR CHANGES.
