Breast Cancer Diagnosis Stories
Breast Cancer Stories.?
I am 29 years old, and afraid of my mind! A few weeks ago, I noticed a pain in my left breast, but I have a child and I thought I was hurt playing in the rough. After a couple of days later I noticed a lump, and since then the pain remains and the left breast is different than before. I often feel like there's something in my chest, like the breast itself is not a part of my body feels like it belongs there. I will get it checked, as soon as possible, but I wonder if this is how someone with breast cancer has it been? I really hope I'm being paranoid, but my gut feeling evil this is not good. Anyone who feels this way with cancer? I know this is not a diagnosis can only use some advice before I lose trained! O sites with this information, I tried, but so far, there are many, have not answered my questions afraid. Hereditary Breast Cancer? My grandmother and her daughter, my aunt had BC.
Sorry to hear that you are having a very worrying time and I hope my experience can help. I was diagnosed invasive breast cancer in 2003 at the age of 49. Fortunately, after a mastectomy and axial play, did not spread and half years down the line yet I'm OK, I have to continue taking medication for a few more years and go on to check at regular intervals. Actually, it was a minor injury that alerted me about my cancer. A bone in her bra and I looked scratched and was not healing, so I went to my doctor. He gave me a breast exam and said that the zero is nothing to worry about, but I knew I had a lump. Well, I never noticed before, but when I called attention to it has surprised and could not understand how I had missed! Having said that, I had never done breast examination in myself and the mass was very small – only 2cms – And not painful at the time. I had to wait almost two months after my operation, however, and at that time was beginning to be painful, in a kind of itching, a pulsatile deaf. The best way I can describe how the lump feeling is like a little bit hard, smooth cartilage. Also when I looked in the mirror I could clearly see that beginning to be a difference in form between my breasts. You are doing exactly the right thing going to get this checked out immediately and I hope and pray that is is not seriously. But if it really is cancer that, I think, are caught early as I did. Rest assured that there is a huge world to help both in the medical system and Internet. If you are in the UK, you should get a nurse breast care assigned to you, mine was a very loving woman who was absolutely brilliant and answer my stupid questions, even with great patience I spent hours and hours on Google looking for anything and everything that could help in relation to treatment (there is very little about how they really feel, though, as you have found), I joined the forums to talk to others with the same conditions as used self-hypnosis to conquer the fear of general anesthesia and fear what the future might hold. I very lucky that my husband was a rock of strength and also my family and friends. I hope very much that their loved ones will be the same for you. Good luck, take care and God bless. PS I have no history of breast cancer in my family.
