Re: Fwd: New Form of breast cancer

[Guest guest]

Thanks, Trisha. I sent it to all my friends and family.

-This symptom has been around for quite a while. Ihad a friend with

that symptom about 5 years ago. Diagnosis- Breast Cancer. This

symptom is not very well advertised. It is good you posted it on

the website.

Another rare symptom is the skin on the breast looking like an

orange peel.

I suggest that anytime you notice a change in the appearance of your

breast to see a doctor and express your concerns. Have it checked

out.

Again, be proactive in your health care

This isn't a new kind of breast cancer but it is rare compared to the others.

I'd also suggest anytime things FEEL different. My breast just felt different, full, like it was bruised. Dr still doesn't know why, but it led to a mammogram which showed the suspicious area, which lead to a biopsy, which will lead to the lumpectomy. Might still have to deal with whatever is causing some pain in my breast, but we will have taken care of the lump.
