Episode 106: Living With Inflammatory Breast Cancer - a podcast by Susan G. Komen

About 1-5 percent of breast cancers in the U.S are Inflammatory Breast Cancer.  This is an aggressive form of breast cancer, with signs that tend to arise quickly, often within weeks or months. There are some challenges of diagnosing IBC, such as the fact that it may first be mistaken for an infection or mastitis because of its symptoms.  Routine mammography may also miss IBC because of its rapid onset.  Our guest today is Sara Diemer, who is here to share  her story of living with Inflammatory Breast Cancer and to help educate us on the signs and symptoms of this rare disease, in hopes that it can help other women to recognize it more quickly.   Sara, welcome to the show!

Special Guest: Sara Diemer.
