Finding A Lump To BREAST CANCER! - Kelsey | Breast Cancer | The Patient Story
• Finding A Lump To BREA...
I had breast cancer in 2010 with a lump first... Then another one with another lump in the other breast. Lost my long hair twice. Still alive. 😃 Wishing the best!!
Thank you for being so candid and sharing your journey.
My symptoms of breast cancer were an extremly itchy rash on my aereola, diagnosed as eczema, and then a discharge from my nipple. My mammagram showed calcifications in all four quadrants of my breast. I ignored my primary care and went to see a sugeon at a major cancer hospital. Biopsies showed that I had Paget's disease of the nipple and that all of my milk ducts were filled with high grade DCIS. I needed a mastectomy on that side so I chose to have a bilateral mastectomy and reconstruction. That was 32 years ago and I've been just fine ever since then.
Such a positive woman! ❤
I am a Baby Boomer and the Doctors I grew up with were "Real Doctors" and amazing. Growing up, they were close to my Mom's age and genuinely cared about their patients. They actually answered their phones. Their lobbies were always full. Even in my 30's I would wait for 2 hours to see "My Doctor." Now the doctors I go to are my age or younger. They are pathetic. They do not take your calls, even though they have less patients (often lobby is empty), take lots of vacations, and make a fortune.
At my last cardiologist appt. and having several serious heart conditions I was told he is only allowed 10 minutes per patient. When I left there was no one waiting in the lobby. So please change doctors whenever you are not listened to or ignored. A cancer patient on these videos said to quit believing doctors are there to help you. You or someone who cares about you has to help you and advocate for you. Do not depend on a doctor. This man had pancreatic cancer.
🙏 ❤ 🙏
For You
Always & Forever
I loved your story! Mine was caught by an ultrasound (no symptoms) and wham! Breast Cancer! I had a mastectomy and very recently another mastectomy on the other breast. I am high risk chek 2 positive with mother aunt and grandmother that had breast cancer. I wish you the BEST! I loved how clear and precise you spoke and am shocked at the age of which you got breast cancer.
What type of breast cancer ?
@@sidralone8075 Lobullar carcinoma
An excellent video that’ll be very helpful to anyone facing breast cancer treatments (of course, each cancer is unique and results in different treatments). Thank you!
I’m a long-time survivor of stage I triple-positive bc. I must say that I was very glad to hear that you have a new oncologist (your previous one should’ve had an associate to help patients while he was away). I admire your strength and upbeat attitude! I do want to say, however, that few cancer patients want to accept dying as an option, but it’s not always within one’s control (as we all know). Adorable child! Wishing you good health from hereon in.
Love the positive attitude! Keep it up and sending you all the best for quick recovery
Your story is very heartbreaking. I so much pray everything turns out being okay. Such a brave lady to come here and tell your story.love peace and light
Girl, you are amazing! I loved listening to your journey 😊 I can’t thank you enough for sharing it. My husband has CLL, which is slow growing. So, nothing like what you’ve endured, but it’s always looming over my head whenever he gets sick, or gets infections, and things like that. Everything you shared was encouraging and helpful for me. So, thank you, my Dear. I loved how you said, “You can get through it.”
You have such a sweet spirit but then you are also so strong. You offered really good advice; I thank you for that, too!
I don’t think you were “given cancer.” I have to respectfully disagree with that. We have mortal bodies that get sick. That’s the reality. Sometimes it just doesn’t make sense but crazy things happen. Sometimes there isn’t a cause or reason - it’s just that things happen like this by “chance.”
I’m old enough to be your Momma, so please allow me to say you are adorable and so so so precious.
Grace and peace! ❤
Omg hearing you reply to this lady makes me realise their are people out there who care for human beings that they don’t know . Faith love peace
@@Jackie-jz4grThank you! You are precious and sweet!
I'm definitely going to share this with my friends, it's too good not to
Please research: doctor Thomas N. Seyfried, Professor, Biology Department at Boston College.
Sorry, missed the part about the second time being in 2015. They had to remove 17 lyphnodes. So I asked them to remove both breasts.
🙏🏼❤️🙌🏼❤️
you should change your diet, its probably the most important way to fight cancer
Carnivore.
@@tigerspiritjourneyNonsense
I did. I’m on a keto diet. Hoping it helps. I feel great. ❤
@@NatashaFitnessYogaPilates Have to stick to it. Also take high amount of vitamin d
@@wintergirl8 Absolutely the way back to health.End of story. Biology does not care about your "beliefs". Ta ta...
