The breast thing is just another in a chain of miserable things happening to my boobs. When i was 18 there was a lump in my breast. Had to have it cut out. Can you imagine that ? Then later on in life i had an abnormal mammogram , so they stuck a needle in my boob to get a sample of my tissue, Without numbing it!!! It was normal .Then my boobs got so heavy they gave me back aches. So i had breast reduction surgery . They cut around your nipples and move them up when they take out the tissue. So there is a scar underneath the breasts, right where your bra hits, and two more running up to the circular scars around the nipples. It hurts big time after they do it. When my Aunt was getting older they found an abnormal mammogram and they called her and told her. But she had Alzheimer's and forgot. I worked at that big multi office doctor complex. But not for the doctor she was seeing. I found the paper in her chart , and it was right in the front as soon as you opened it, along with her list of diagnosed illnesses, which listed Alzheimer's. And she had been to see the doctor and nothing was done. Or maybe they told her and she forgot again. Idk, but they knew she was my aunt and they knew me. :mad:
So she had cancer and it just sat there growing until i figured it out. She had it removed and it did not recur.
Gives you so much faith in the medical system. :barnie

I have been there too hun. I was a human guinea pig in a teaching hospital. I didnt have insurance so that was how I got medical. I was a rare case study .
Point is, you are catching this early. The best thing you can do, you are doing. And you saved your aunts life! How about that !
