What do you think of the recent “breaking medical news” that says that self exams don’t work?

Thanks for the reminder. I’m glad all is well, at least in terms of the big bad issues. I hope you’re able to figure out what is causing the pain.

Oh hun, I can relate to this post so well. I just went through this 2 weeks ago, and I’m going back in a few more to make sure all checks out again. 2 years ago I was handed an oncology surgeons business card for a second opinion. I nearly wet my pants.

So glad all is alright. An excellent topic to post on. Indeed, so important.

Very important reminder. I’m kind of a spoiled idiot because I’ve been fairly lucky with health stuff, and I don’t always think to feel my boobies (love that little graphic!).

I’m glad that you are so proactive, are taken seriously and that nothing major seems to be going on. I agree, though, about the man thing. I’ve been to *tons* of male doctors, and I have to say that in general I prefer to see a woman who has the same body parts. I’ve also found women docs to be more likely to be better listeners. Of course, there are great male docs and terrible female docs, but for something like this, I don’t blame you for being a little shy.

Glad, all is alright, so far!
I can feel your pain.
And yes, I feel mine all the time *grins*.
Haven’t had a mammogram yet, but might get one this year when I get my IUD changed *winces just at the thought of that idea……*

Glad to hear everything’s okay!!

That last banner made me laugh… not that it’s a laughing matter.
