i have breast cancer and am being tested for possible cancer in the liver, i am wanting to take a leave of absence from school because of all the appointments and soon the treatment, they say i have to put in for leave in the first or tenth week of this phase, otherwise if i miss 8 days straight i get dropped or if i at least go once a week for the rest of my phase, which might be impossible, i could fail but could resume when all my treatment is done, i dont understand why i couldnt take the leave now because this is a severe illness

My great-grandma had it, my grandma had it, my great-aunt has it, and my mom was really close to getting it. If my mom doesn't get it in her life time, what is the chance that I will? What if she does get it? Is there anything I can do to minimize our chances?

She was diagnosed last December, and was only 54 years old. I was very close to her and was with her until the very end when she took her last breath. I feel like someone just ripped my heart out. I am in so much pain and this is all so new to me. I cry and can't stop thinking of her. Does it get better with time?

ok, a little more detail is probably needed.

My friend met, and fell in love with, a girl who will remain unnamed. she had overcome a different run-in with cancer at an earlier date, and no ill-effects occured. My friend married her, and they decided to have a kid.

this is the 3rd month of their pregnancy, and during a routine check-up, the doctors found cancer in her uterus. i dont know all the details, but i do know that the life of the kid is in jeapordy. what they would normally do is go in and remove the cancer cells, and no harm would be done. but they cant, because of the baby. they dont want to give her treatment, or kemo, because it may hurt the kid.

what am i, as a friend, supposed to do, or say? i know, be supportive and all that, but i cannot always be there. he has always come to me when he didnt know what to do, and i have gone to him to ask questions as well. What do i tell him?

how can i reassure him that everything will be fine without sounding like a sham?

I have had a constant pain in my left breast close to my armpit for about 6 months. I went to the doctor after about the first month and he said it was probably a swolen lymph node and would go away in a few weeks. It never did. The pain feels like someone poked me in the side of my rib and is always there, sometimes hurting more than other times. Could this be cancer of maybe fibrocystic breast disease? I have a sister with fibrocystics breast disease but she says the pain is typically in both breasts and gets worse with caffiene or closer to her period. Please help and/or give me some resources to work with. Thanks!

I'm only 19 years old and my doctor told me that there is practicly no chance of me getting breast cancer at this age and for right now all I have to do is the monthly self exams. My one grandmother died of breast cancer in her late 50's, so naturally I'm worried...how worried should I be and what should I do?

at my inner hip bone, pretty much at the belt line i have a lump. but there is no ball or nothing, it looks like evelated skin. starting on the right side beltime line going down like an inch. its squishy, no pain like that. i workout at the gym alot with heavy weights. I never had an enlarged lymph node before so i wouldnt know what that would feel like. i know i feel no lump or hardness, i push it its squishy. Back in Febrary i went to a hematoligst and he did blood work and checked my lymph nodes and found out i have epsetin barr. does that sound like a lymph node. im freaking out thinking i have lymphoma or something realyl serious. like i said no pain or hard lump. just elevated soft skin . is this where hernia starts, but its not in the middle its going down my groin line above my pubic area to the right side. Please help me im freaking out

My dad has been sick with strep throat like symptoms for about 6 weeks. After he went to the doctor he eventually got a biopsy. Today the test came back positive for cancer and he is really freaked out. I was just wondering if anyone has known anyone with throat cancer, and if so how it has affected the patient. All my dad talks about is making sure the house is paid off and that he has enough life insurance. Is this normal for someone recently diagnosed with cancer? He seems so morbid about everything. My sister and I are going off to college this week and I know I'm going to have to come home a lot to do the things he has always done (mow the lawn, rake the leaves etc.). I just don't want to make him feel weak when he starts his radiation and chemo. What did you do for your loved one when they were going through treatment?
Sorry if I was rambling but it's been a long day. Just share your story of how you got through it and what you did to make them feel better?

The amount of ppl that it affects, you'd think that the ppl who run the companies would have found the cure right now. OH! and shouldn't the ppl be giving their materials for free? Like if the cancer researchers needed some sort of medicine shouldnt the ppl at the companies ( that make that kind of medicine) shouldnt they give it to the cancer researchers for FREE? or is it all about making money? what is the world coming to? If you get what i mean.
