Invasive (sometimes called infiltrating) means cancer cells left the original tumor (cancer in situ means it's still contained in the tumor)...even tho that still sounds ominous, it's not...it just means the treatment will be addressed differently...it does not necessarily affect your outcome...I also had IDC, stage 3, 2 tumors.. diagnosed 18 mos ago...just had my follow appt this AM after a mammo and NO cancer seen in either breast!!...and I am feeling great..so don't sweat it you will do great!!
