Avatar f tn Not sure if the superfoods have causes this grainy stool, but I am concerned since it lasts for a couple of days. I have opted to skip a few days between the smoothies to see if there is a difference in my stool and yes, today, that are somewhat (minor) more consistent and compacted. HELP. Should I be worried?
Avatar m tn But how come I have any psa at all if I haven’t got a prostate? I can only conclude that the cancer is coming back. Am I correct with this assumption? I don’t know the details of the surgery measurements but was told the cancer was contained and that’s all. . Here are my PSA readings: 25 Jan 2013, Psa Group Total PSA: 1.0 ug/L 31 Oct 2011, Psa (Total) PSA (Total):1.0 ng/mL 04 Jun 2010, Psa Group Total PSA: 0.50 ug/L 12 Feb 2009, Psa (Total) PSA (Total):0.
1137554 tn?1263237018 BRCA1 positive males do have a slightly higher risk of prostate cancer. Your risk of ovca is 44% higher according to some statistics and 87%higher for breast cancer. This is why if you are positive, you would definately want to have your ovaries removed at the least. Mine was a blessing or else I would not have found it at the stage 1C because I have never had any symptoms nor any problems. There was no indication that I had ovca at the time of my surgery.
Avatar f tn I found a big long lump in between my breasts. It's been there for about a month but I'm too scared to go to my doctor about it because I'm afraid that she's going to say that I have breast cancer. I'm too young to have breast cancer. I'm only 18. It's getting to the point where it kind of hurts when I go to stand up and bend down. What do you think it is or could be? What should I do? I'm really scared.
Avatar n tn I had the biopsy and the report was positive for DCIS. I see the breast surgeon today. It appears they have caught this early. Thanks for your help.
Avatar f tn t have the answers for you, but, I decided to get mastectomy because I was in the process of getting a breast reduction. My other breast will be a reduction. For the question, ask your doctor because I was told in my situation I may not have to have chemo or radiation because they don't know yet. I hope your mom is doing ok.
Avatar f tn Most breast cancers are not hereditary. However, there are two breast cancer gene mutations, BRCA1 and BRCA2, that can be inherited and increase your chances of getting breast and/or ovarian cancer. Notice that this only increases your chances, and does not guarantee that you will get breast cancer. The person to be tested is your mother. If your mother does not have the mutation, you do not have the mutation.
15355684 tn?1440035790 Can anyone suggest some superfoods that help improve the brain performance? Recently I found a superfood called Bulletproof brain octane oil that helps improve brain performance at Giddy Yoyo, a certified organic food product seller in Canada. Does anyone here have tried this product? or if someone who knows better superfood then please share.
Avatar n tn This type of breast cancer accounts for no more than 2% of all breast cancer diagnoses and occurs most frequently in women who are in their 50s. Tubular breast carcinoma tends to be small, highly estrogen dependent and HER2/neu negative. Women with this type of breast cancer are less likely to metastasize and have an excellent survival rate. Decisions about treatment would take into account several factors such as size of the tumor, hormone receptor status, lymph node status etc.
Avatar n tn I had breast cancer in my right breast 7 yrs. ago, had a lumpectomy, & had chemo. & radiation therapy for that. I couldn't follow up with Temoxaphen because of negative receptors. Cancer was found in my left breast now, so I had a bilateral mastectomy and no cancer cells were found other than in the new cancer site when pathology was done on the removed tissue and nodes. this cancer had positive estrogen receptors. The diagnosis is good and was rated as a "0".

Avatar n tn Dear serenehealthnut: Breast Cancer is extremely uncommon in women under 20. Skin on the breast is like skin anywhere on the body and is subject to a variety of abnormalities, including infection, eczema etc. If it has returned to normal, it is more likely to be something other than cancer. However, if you are concerned or if this returns, you should bring it to the attention of your doctor.
Avatar n tn Please have a conversation with your Doctors about this. The first diagnosis and treatment for breast cancer is the most important, in my honest opinion. Please please research this before making a decision in your treatment. Please. And best wishes to you and your family. This isn't an easy road but you can do it. :) HER2/neu (also known as ErbB-2) stands for "Human Epidermal growth factor Receptor 2" and is a protein giving higher aggressiveness in breast cancers.
Avatar n tn However, it is frequently associated with the development of cancer. The criteria for clean margins can vary from institution to institution but 1mm is often considered a clean margin. So, in theory, if all the DCIS is removed and there is no invasive cancer, radiation should reduce the risk for local recurrence. Tamoxifen is given to help prevent more breast cancer from developing.
Avatar f tn m 43 and have no history of breast cancer and had highly suspicious calcifications (lots of them, in a cluster, lobular and lots of other scary words)---- so I wondered if that 85% was ALL microcalcifications or if you had the highly suspicious type at a young age (well, young for breast cancer anyway----- lol) if that meant my chances of cancer were greater. It is all part of the cycle of worry. What you are feeling is natural. My biopsy turned up benign results.
Avatar f tn I hope I am in the right place. I am nineteen years old, and I keep trying to check my breast for cancer. I have smaller breast. Every time I check I can feel my ribs, sometimes I can't tell if it is a lump or my bones. Do you have any tips for checking your beast ? Do you feel bones too ?
Avatar n tn coronary heart disease, stroke, breast cancer, ovarian cancer, lung cancer, colorectal cancer, hip fracture, pulmonary embolus, and death due to all causes. A lot of additional data was collected in order to compare similar groups of women in terms of other factors. The women were similar in terms of baseline risk factors for cardiovascular disease and cancer, although the women who had their ovaries removed were slightly older and slightly more likely to be using or have used hormone therapy.
483733 tn?1326798446 The survival benefit achieved with adjuvant therapy was most pronounced for women with estrogen receptor (ER)-positive breast cancer. Among these women, at 5 years, the overall and disease-free survival rates in the adjuvant therapy group were 88 percent and 83 percent, respectively, while the corresponding rates in the observation group were 74 percent and 61 percent. Once again, the differences persisted at 10 years.
Avatar f tn I was diagnosed with T2N0M0 breast cancer and went for mastectomy followed by 4 sessions of Taxotere. Now my doctor prescribed Aromasin alone for 5 years. He did not give me Tamoxifen first followed by Aromasin, but just Aromasin for 5 years. Is this acceptable ? I am 57 years old, mother of 4 children. Please advise.

Avatar n tn You have to do self examination every month and know about the consistency of your breast at different places.Every year it is advisable to visit a clinician for breast examination. All lumps are not cancers. Your period might have stopped because of Pregnancy, please go for a pregnancy test to confirm. If not you have to go to a gynaecologist to know the reasons for no periods.
Avatar m tn my situation is that I am 38 1/2, no family history, go every year for paps/breast exams. At my annual visit on February 5th, my APN found an area or "ridge" that just "didn't feel right" - it was new and she thought she would have noted it before. Upper right breast on the outer area. I immediately thought the worst but she assured me it was probably nothing but that I should go ahead and have it checked out with a diagnostic mammo rather than wait.
Avatar n tn t know the specific numbers in your questions, but you can find a lot of statistical information at the major breast cancer sites (type breast biopsy statistics into google for a start). I do know that the number of breast biopsies in the US is quite high compared to elsewhere, with the result being a "general" statistic of about 20% of biopsies coming back as malignant. Somebody correct me if I have this wrong. More statistical refinement can be found in the BIRAD classification.
