What...
Common IBC Symptoms:

• a swollen breast
• a painful breast
• incessant itchy breast
• a rash on one breast
• a bug bite that won't go away

These symptoms may appear overnight without warning. If they do not go away with creams, ointments or antibiotics, demand that your doctor rule out IBC.

Things You need to know:
Mammograms usually don't pick up IBC because normally there is no lump that women are told to look for.

Why - Reason #1
Doctors misdiagnose Inflammatory Breast Cancer as mastitis.

Why - Reason #2
We need to push this message across the country.

Who..
Our group of dedicated advocates are, and a brief message about each one of us.
