I have no clue how to distinguish ducts from lumps...don't do self checks until this morning...sad I know.
My mom isdying of cancer that started in her colon but since the doctorrs tried to remove it they did not get it all and the cancer came back with revenge and spread everywhere..
I will be 35 soon and I want to know infomation about BC as much as I can.
Could I be just freaking out? |
I am deeply sorry about your mom... I wish you strength in taking care of her at this final stage. I lost my mom to metastatic liver cancer and I still remember what her dr told me: "Now you need to make sure that your mother passes away with dignity." To this day these words comfort me. My thoughts and prayers are with you...
My suggestion to you would be 1) relax and 2) schedule a physical. We are not expected to be able to tell the difference between ducts and lumps: if we could do it, or even if drs could do it, there would be no mammograms and ultrasounds. Talk to your gyno about your medical history and family history. S/he will examine your breasts in an expert, professional way and maybe refer you for a *****. Schedule a Pap smear. If you are a smoker... you know what to do...
Eat well, sleep well, take care of your mom and do not be afraid. It does not necessarily mean you will get cancer. Genes play a part, but there is a lot to be said for healthy lifestyle and prevention.
Take care of yourself.
Hugs.
