In the past 10 months, I had 8 rounds of chemo, 2 surgeries within 24 hours and 25 rounds of radiation and now I am on the chemo pill for breast cancer. I walked 5 miles today. Move aside cancer, I have alot of living to do!
Hi Madisen. As a medical oncologist I am super impressed with your knowledge about your cancer (stage, histology, oncotype...), that is very rare! I wish you all the Best!
Thank you for sharing. Any new lump that does not disappear, needs checking out. Early cancer, which has not invaded surrounding structures, is mobile; and that is the stage at which we want to catch the tumour.
Thank you for sharing. I am a professor of health and wellness for freshman college students. I have posted this video in my course because I think you did an amazing job emphasizing that need to get things checked out. You are awesome young woman. Much love and support.
Thank you for sharing the video! Please let me know if you would like any kind of specific information or if there’s any other way I could help raise awareness.
Hi hun! I’m 31 diagnosed with inflammatory breast cancer. I’m starting chemo soon. I’m glad I found someone I could relate to thank you for making videos!
Thanks for sharing your story. I was diagnosed with stage 3 idc breast cancer back in 2015 when I was 28 years old. Almost 6 years on I’m doing well so far. I always advocate that cancer can happen to anyone you are your body’s best advocate. If you don’t feel it’s right don’t accept no for the answer. Sending you positive vibes and you’ll get through this!! Reach out to me if you ever wanna talk
I am so sorry you have also had to go through this diagnosis. Thank you for offering such kind words - I completely agree. Getting a breast cancer diagnosis in your 20-30's is earth shattering, and really makes you want to encourage others to advocate for themselves. Sending so much love
Very good video. I do hope you are winning! I'm a guy but was diagnosed with cancer during precautionary check to rule anything out. It was a Friday 10 days before Christmas 3 years ago so I had a list of shopping aft the tests. Just after my test I was ready to rush off. The Dr was like 'wait a minute look what we found. Its a tumour, it needs to come out.' It just didn't seem to sink in. I was expecting the operation in a few months. Then I found out it would be right aft Christmas. But I was so fucused on my shopping plans, it still didn't sink in. I was given a leaflet about my condition and procedure. But still in denial and didn't look at it until the Sunday. Then the first word I see is Cancer! Wow did that hit home!! I had it cut out first week of January 2018, so I really do wish you all the best 🤞. Take care ☺️
I am very sorry to hear this. You haven't posted any updates. Please do not give up hope, fight, you can beat this. Eventhough I don't know you personally, I pray for you, that our Lord Jesus Christ embraces and comforts you through your treatment & heals you. ❤🙏🏻✝️
Everything you said and did was right . It is your decision. You provided yourself with lots of info. You chose drs. you liked which is so important. I wish strength and healing. I will be following.
I’m so sorry you’re going through this however, I am so glad that you caught this early! Also thank you for sharing your journey, I think it will be amazing for anyone else in a similar situation as well as push people to finally go and see a doctor if they’ve found/felt something off. Hope you’re great and staying safe, sending you love and light ❤️!
What a story. Very very simmilar to mine. I left mine for a few months and then had it removed thinking it is nothing. When the results came, I asked my dr if it could be a mistake? So happy you caught it early. You are very brave and I wish you all the best in your journey.
I’ve had 2 lumpectomies in 2 years. Not cancer either time. BRCA1+ I took 5 years of Tamoxifen knowing I have a strong family history of breast cancer. I had a total hysterectomy and will be having a prophylactic bilateral mastectomy. I love my breast surgeon! She’s in Arlington Texas at The Center For Cancer And Blood Disorders! Dr. Adewuni Ojo MD! I couldn’t ask for better care!
I hope you are doing well! It's quite usual that you don't remember parts or details of doctor appointment, it happens to so many people. I don't know how it is in the US but you can probably record your conversation. There are even apps that record and help with doctor appointments!
I just posted an update video, I am sorry it took me so long! I was not expecting anyone to really see this, but I am glad that the information is getting out there.
Damn you got this . ive had what I think is a lump but its been around for 3 or 4 years well not a lump sometimes i think it is. Its hard to describe . but breast pain on and off it hurts my shoulder and the upper part of my left breast. Ive set up an appintment to get it checked out. I was adopted so I dont know my families history . I am larger sized and its hard to find the proper bra so it could just be a stress tear. But this inspires me to get it taken care of whatever it is
PLEASE get it checked out!! I am so glad you are going in and taking care of yourself. You never know what it could be until a doctor takes a look at it. Advocate for yourself, I wish you all the best and I pray that they find nothing abnormal.
@ridhima jharwal im going next week . I had to wait longer. Its just pain in my upper left breast like almost my shoulder . my adoptive mom had the same shit and went in and it was a lump but it was a cyst . so hopefully its good news. The pain goes on and off. But I cant ignore this. I need to be sure
I just had a lumpectomy and bilateral lift at MDA two weeks ago. They are amazing. I have lobular stage 1 triple positive. Clear margins and nodes. Who was your surgeon?
Hi nice to meet you I would like to suggest to use niacine pill twice per day + garbanzo beans every meal daily and there is something on the way that you can inyect water oxigenate into the cancer that's a suggestion ask to your doctor If it is possible. 💓
Did your lump cause any pain? Radiating pain in arms by chance? I am so sorry you are having to face this tough decision and the fact you had breast cancer. Thinking of you and praying for you to be able to make a decisions with peace.
I did not have any pain, no. But that is just my personal experience. If you have any concerns, I always encourage going and getting it checked out ❤️ thank you for the kind words!
Various cancers have been connected to supplements, vitamin/mineral supplements, but one also has to question whether the birth-control pill isn't perhaps also a cause, even though medical professionals usually say it isn't. These days so many young people/women seem to be getting cancers and MS: *Something* is causing this so perhaps doggedly collecting and pooling information will eventually answer the "why" question.
I'm a guy who also has ductal carcinoma in situ it was found when I had nipple discharge and a lump did you have nipple discharge too? I'm sending you my love and thoughts ♥️
I had no nipple discharge, just the lump. Nothing looked out of place, I only could feel something small and hard under my skin. It was moveable, and felt like a small pea or marble. Sending you love, cancer sucks.
I'm saying prayers for you and for what it's worth..don't eat black burned meats. Hot dogs steaks or the like...meats.. long back I trad a health magazine that burned stuff causes cancer. Thinking of you.
Did any doctors give you a hard time about the possibility of having cancer at your age? I am also 22 and having a hard time with doctors letting me get it checked out
I had 5 of the axillary lymph nodes removed. 1 out of 5 showed two tiny cancer cells, the biggest being .4mm. So the one that did have some, was removed. There'd be no way to know if there was any other cancer cells in the other lymph nodes unless I had them removed as well!
I have mammogram and ultrasound and then they send me to biopsy 😞now they said I have to see surgeron breast DR. But they don’t tell me if I have cancer or not. I so scare 😞
I am sure they will tell you once they know for sure. Getting a biopsy and even seeing a breast surgeon does not always mean you have cancer. I am wishing you the best, I will be uploading more videos hopefully soon. Stay strong and hopeful!!
