Went through countless biopsies and finally was diagnosed with a very rare form of BC back in '96. I had one removed with reconstruction. There was never a history of cancer in my family except for my daddy who died of lung cancer. However, I was diagnosed years before he was. | |

I understand it on one hand ... BUT what do you think about it ? They're f***ing idiots (IMDHO). What's next, men cut off their penises to prevent prostate cancer possibilities?!? WTF? Women need to have the courage to fight breast cancer to the bitter end if necessary. But good grief, don't get rid of the breasts. Women wouldn't be the same without their puppies, and they know it. | |

butterfli25 said: I understand it, I have a strong BC history and 2 daughters, we all have very dense breasts, fibrous and full. My birth grandmother died of breast cancer when my birth mom was 12 which put her in her late 30's or early 40's when she died. I had a cousin who had 3 kids, breast fed them all and died of breast cancer at 31. My birth mom is a survivor she was 50 when she was diagnosed and had a double mast for precaution and got implants. So if I have the counseling and something turns up I may consider this procedure. They are breasts and I love them but I can get some more, and bigger As for my life, well I can't be replaced and I would rather be here with implants than not at all.
Amazing story. What good is any of it if you lose your life. Having breasts, natural or not, does not make you a woman but they certainly do make you "feel" like one. [Edited 1/28/10 16:17pm] | |

I mean...does anyone actually believe these women just woke up one morning and said, "Gee...what should I do today? I know! I'll get my breasts removed. Just...you know...on the off-chance that I might get cancer." This has to be a gut-wrenching decision - and definitely not one that is made lightly. [Edited 1/28/10 13:35pm] Exactly! And it happens in very rare cases when there's an almost definite chance they'll get breast cancer. Like both parents had it. I know someone who's mother, an aunt, and two sisters died from BC. If I was her I'd be having surgery tomorrow. My life is more valuable than some boobs. | |

I don't think that would be a first option cuz so many women are adamant they want to keep their breasts. That's why prophylactic mastectomies are still so rare. Doctors only bring this up after weighing ALL the factors and that genetic testing is a biggie and a pretty good indicator of breast cancer. | |

There was never a history of cancer in my family except for my daddy who died of lung cancer. However, I was diagnosed years before he was. That's some tough stuff. I just found out today my best friend's mother-in-law, who tells everyone I'm her daughter, has cancer in her lymph nodes and in her pelvic bone. The crazy part is she went in about 4 months ago complaining about discomfort in her abdomen and they were like, we're going in today. They found a cancerous tumor the size of grapefruit. When they asked her who her gyno was she said she didn't have one. Really, WTF??? So basically this mess coulda been caught at an annual exam. She did her chemo and 3 weeks ago they told her she was cancer free. Then last friday she goes in with pain, and we find out today about it spreading to her nodes and bones, possible stage 3. | |

Between both sides of my family 7 women died of breast cancer and 2 survived. I underwent genetic testing 14 years ago. There might well be a great big C on my DNA. Faced with that information and having gone through several scares I made the choice to have a prophylactic radical mastectomy. Cut those bitches off and got me a new pair! Yes surgery has plenty of risk but I was looking at a lifetime of risk. It was an easy decision. One I have never regretted. | |

Genesia said: My cousin's wife was diagnosed a couple years with cancer in one breast. They could have just done a lumpectomy with follow-up radiation and chemo. But she decided that, based on her family history and the fact that the kinds of cancers that occur in younger women tend to be more aggressive, she would go for a double mastectomy, hardcore radiation and chemo, and reconstruction afterward.
She is cancer free now - and we all hope she stays that way. and I say good on her! | |

I won't go back and quote myself from that thread but I do not see how what I said has any bearing on the stupid comment made by Tony. A man's dick is not the end all be all for me and if a guy I was seeing decided he was going to have it removed to avoid getting cancer, I would support him 100%. I've gone years at time without sex voluntarily so guess what? I could not give a damn about dick size. Perhaps you and Tony should re-read what I said | |
