Having gone through it directly, you will be that much more qualified for your career you're pursuing, LaShae ❤
WTH, someone answering the phone with zero medical training is over riding a physician order?! How is that allowed!!!! I am glad she got testing done and they found it, despite the arrogant person on the phone!
I am glad you are getting treatment for this. I had a hard lump in one breast since Jan. Last 6 months. Had mammograms, ultra sound and eventually breast biopsy. In May I had pet scan and bone marrow biopsy. It turns out it's my original cancer of lymphoma. It's still cancer, but not breast cancer. The lump hurt for months. A few weeks ago I had a cortisone shot in my leg for bursitis. It helped my leg a little .. but surprise , my lump is almost gone as a side effect. I panicked as you did and I'm much older. Praying for your full recovery 🙏
So proud of you. Keep up the research and the wonderful positive energy, we need more folks like you to help and contribute
What an extraordinary person you are! I’m so glad you had the interior strength to stand up for yourself and ask for that initial breast exam. And the fact that you lifted
Thank you for this video. It’s great that you were proactive. I’m a breast cancer survivor (25 years since dx). I hope you have as easy as possible a treatment protocol and good health from now on. And I wish you great success in your much-needed profession.
Wow ! Praying for a full recovery keep up your good work . My mother and all my sisters have died of cancer. and one sister is fighting cancer and she had lung cancer. Found it in stage 1 . I have no cancer but I'm scared but I know God made every fiber of my being . Trust everyday on my Lord 🙏. Stand strong you are a fighter your strength to help others show. Amen.

The person answering the phone, who has no medical training, should NEVER be trying to talk someone out of a medical test that has been ordered by a doc! What the heck?
It may have been a nurse
I am not sure who it was, but I am glad I went with my gut and did it anyway!
Also, what did you do to prevent neuropathy? Ty
ice compression gloves for my feet and hands.
Please tell me what is scalp cooling?
it’s vasoconstriction blood vessels that transport blood to the hair follicles using a cold cap to reduce the amount of chemo that enters the hair follicle.
