Until today, I had never heard of Inflammatory Breast Cancer.

I was reading a couple of blogs and saw posts about WhyMommy from Toddler Planet who was told she has Inflammatory Breast Cancer.

Inflammatory Breast Cancer often mimics mastitis. If you have any of the symptoms, please get to you doctor as soon as possible.

from IBCResearch.org
[ What is Inflammatory Breast Cancer? INFLAMMATORY BREAST CANCER (IBC) is an advanced and accelerated form of breast cancer usually not detected by mammograms or ultrasounds. Inflammatory breast cancer requires immediate aggressive treatment with chemotherapy prior to surgery and is treated differently than more common types of breast cancer. "African Americans have a higher incidence of IBC than do Caucasians and other ethnic groups (10.1%, 6.2%, and 5.1%, respectively)." source ]
