Some thoughts (take with a grain of salt as I am still in training!) -- I
would also be concerned about resistant strains, especially with a lot of
interventions.  Not only resistant bacteria, but resistant yeast, as
fluconazole-resistance has definitely been described when trauma patients
were prophylaxed.  Could you list the antibiotics she had received?

Also, what type of biopsy was performed?  I don't actually know what the
sensitivity of a core needle biopsy is for inflammatory breast cancer, but
if that was the type, they might have missed it.

Incidentally, as a likely future breast surgeon, I'd love to hear what you
did not like about the surgeon's incision.

p.s.  thanks to you lovely ladies I spent the better part of the morning
writing letters to NIH and CareNet!  Activism before work, I guess...
