Oct/16 I had a very painful left breast. Went to ER. With fever/chills blood work/ X-ray normal, ultra sound done on a later date. ER gave me Antibiotics for 10 days. Ultrasound fluid around a lump. 10 days of Antibiotics I felt better. Before I could barley stay awake, back hurt had a fever of 100. My PS mentioned ALCL. The lump biopsied negative. Still tired. I still have the lump in my breast with pains. Is it possible that I have ALCL? Would Antibiotics cleared up the fluid around the lump?
