GREAT NEWS! The breast specialist/oncologist I saw today, Dr. Bland, is also a breast expert and has written several books on breast cancer. I'm telling you this to say that I believe he knows what...
I was finally able to get to see my usual nurse-practitioner this morning, and when she did a breast exam, she discovered that the place where most of my pain is that there is a thickening of the...
OK, just found out that the mammogram came back "normal," which I figured it would since I don't have a lump. But I'm not giving up until I find out what's wrong with me! I have a call in now to a...
