Had a mammogram, then a few weeks later another one plus a ultra sound. they had found a mass or area as they said? the problem is in both breasts. I had gained weight after quitting the cigarette habit and my health is down hill....the pain that radiates from my left breast seems to go right through into my back area behind my shoulder blade. I had complained of dizziness for over 2 years and my breasts are constantly hurting since my last mammogram.WHY/

My mom is dying of Cervical Cancer. The cancer has spread to her major organs and she has a few days to live. I am devastated because she is only 54 and my mom and I were very close. My mom was in so much pain yesterday that the doctor gave her a higher dose of Morphine. It was terrible to see her screaming in such pain. I went to see her today, and she was sleeping the entire time, and I was relieved that she was not screaming in pain anymore. I talked to her, and told her how much she means to me, and I was wondering if she could hear me? Can anyone answer this? I am not sure if she could or not.

My father is going through chemotherapy. His doctor told him he cannot be around children while undergoing treatments. Well, I am 36 weeks pregnant and wondered if anyone knows if it is unsafe to be around him. He needs rides to chemo and I planned on taking him, but I do not know if it is safe or not.

My mother has a low Red Blood Cell Count. She is seeing her doctor steadily and they are running tests, but I am curious as to what might be the problem. Could it have something to do with Lymphona, or another type of cancer? Any honest & knowledgeable suggestions would help. I just kind of want to prepare myself. I always try to expect the worst that way I am not so disappointed. Thank you for your help.

Few patients live past early 20's, and my husband is 22 (diagnosed at 20), so not much is known about his type. He has a had surgery to remove it, then radiation. i grew back, ate away his spine and pelvis, so now they cant remove it again. he has been getting injections to help shrink it with little progress. we think part of the problem is that he hasn't had insurnace, but he gets medicare next month. we just need to find someone with some new options.

what does reactive adenopathy mean?
Also what does this mean?
from ultrasound:

largest of these on the right is 6x9x4mm and on the left is 10x3x6mm. these show benign features and do not appear to be clinically signifficant. An enlarged node about 10x 8x 10mm is seen in the left submandibular region.
doe sthis mean it's a benign lump or tumour that they want to watch, or do you think they will remove it?
I have been unwell for 10 months now.
Thankyou in advance for your answers

[serious, so nobody just answer this question with some stupid, silly, answer, or just to fool around. take that somewhere else.]

If you have cervical cancer, is there a really good chance that you'll live normally after treatments,
or will you unfortunely not make it more often then you will...?

please answer.
thnx
