Can anyone tell me what to expect. I have to take relaxation med. because I am clostrophobic. When I get the results, I have to decide lumpectomy or masectomy but I am fibrocystic so how do I know this won't continue if I don't get a full masectomy. I am in shock and very numb ever since I was told this news. It doesn't run in my family. Any information would be helpful to me. I am very scared and this is all I think about everyday. I have had a chest xray already, and bloodwork, and now the MRI and my dr. is mentioning a lymph node check possibly. If anyone has had that done, can you please tell me what to expect. I would appreciate anything, but right now, bad news I cannot handle. thankyou.

i'm only 15, but Ive had this small thing on my right shoulder for a reeeeaaaally long time. Its not red, or blue or anything; It's the same color as my skin. Its smaller than the head of a pencil eraser, perfectly round, and its smooth. I've never worried about it seriously, until about a week ago, when I read an article in a magizine about skin cancer. Even then I wouldn't have worried about it, becuase It didn't really match any of the symptoms, exsept one. It did beed once about 2 1/2 yers ago. And it said bleeding was a big sign. It's not like it itches, or bleeds all the time or anything, nor does it ever hurt. And Im pretty sure I have no history of skin cancer in my family. one of my uncles died from cancer, but it wasn't skin. I don't know, what do you think? And please try and say something other than," go have it checked out". Because I currently have no insurence. Thanks :]

Hi
I lost my mom to cancer 4 weeks back, and i had to make the decision of pulling the plugs, it was not pleasant as you might imagine, this is why i decided that i don’t want to put anyone in such case. After watching my mom die everyday and every hour i don’t want any tubs in me when i die, the question is how do you do a living will, do you need a lawyer? or can you just get it notarized from a notary public? Where do you keep it? what if i get into a car accident and i am taken to the emergency and they put those breathing machines and tubs in me and i am not awake? how would they know i have a living will?

2 years ago I was referred to the Hospital because I had a sore lump in my right boob . The Consultant who examined me said she coulden't feel the lump and didn't want to probe any deeper as it was very sore, but said as it was sore I probably had nothing to worry about and diagnosed me with ' non-specific breast pain'. I accepted this at the time but ended up back at the hospital 1 year later with the same lump (only larger) and still in pain. I felt they would think I was a nuisance. However, by the end of the day I had a diagnosis of Breast Cancer which was by then high grade (stage 3) and a 6.5cm tumour. My lymph glands were also affected. They did a lumpectomy which was not enough so I had a mastectomy and most of my lymph glands removed followed by months of Chemo and Radiation Therapy. I am now on Tamoxifen for the next 5 years. I am very, very tired and glad to be alive but cannot get the Misdiagnosis out of my mind . Any feedback on what to do would be appreciated.

The cancer started in the fall of 2001. After many surgeries to remove the cancer, the cancer metastized and I got 6 cycles of MVAC Chemo. It'll be 3 years cancer free but I'm too tired to do my old job as a carpenter. Actually, I'm too tired to do anything physical. If I do, I have to sleep all day the next day.

I'm a 57 year old married man and need some way to make money to help pay our bills. No get rich quick schemes. Just a lawful way to make some money!

I am not knocking on anything really-but really...it seems like everything nowadays you can get cancer from it. Is anything safe to eat,drink, or use anymore?

My mother has been receiving treatment for cancer since 2003. She has undergone three courses of chemotherapy, but on Friday we got the news that the disease has now overtaken her liver and spread into her lungs. She has been told further treatment would have a tiny chance of success and she should concentrate on trying to enjoy the "months" she has left. My parents own a house in France, they are going down there tomorrow and she expects to die there.

Obviously her family will be visiting and trying to make this period as easy as possible for her. My question is about my four year old son. He is going to see his granny deteriorate rapidly and eventually disappear from his life. We feel he is too young to understand the concept of death, does anyone have any advice on what (if anything) we should be saying to him?

My aunt was diagnosed with cancer in December they said it was stage 4 ovarian in February and she had surgery.. They removed all her woman organs and part of the colon... then a few weeks after surgery she started chemo and in June she was told it already spread to the liver and now they are changing her chemo.. She seems very depressed and sick looking and she is also going threw a divorce my question is how likely would it be for her to beat it? And with this info, how long would you say she could make it?
