i work for the red cross on the disaster action team and i suspect i might have breast cancer (but i do not see my doctor until not week) do you all think it might be hazardness if i go to a fire call with all the smoke in the air????

The delay until yopu see your Dr is probably more of a hazard than the smoke you may experience in the meantime.
You are doing the right thing getting it checked and getting some background knowledge in the meantime.
If it IS cancer, then it is a lot less scary when you know what you are fighting!

Don't panic until you see the doctor. Breast cancer is one of the MOST treatable cancers out there.

It would be no more dangerous than it would be under any other circumstances.
Please realize that over 85% of breast masses are NOT malignant. Most nipple discharge is not ominous. It is very good that you are seeing the doctor---but don't jump to conclusions.
Life is for living. Even with cancer.
Good luck--I hope you get wonderful news.

Keep on living as you would if nothing is wrong. Jesus is still in the miracle business so I'll pray for your healing and good news.
" Father I pray that you will give Bobbie your peace during this difficult time and that you will ease her mind until her next dr appointment. I ask for a good report back from Bobbi's doctor. In Jesus name I pray, Amen."

You are right to get it checked out.
Live your life to the fullest.
Do your best not to stress out, that won't help matters.
Best wishes
