Would anyone know where I can get a free mammogram?
I've called a few clinics, hospitals and even the local health department, but no one has a clue. I found a small lump about six months ago..... It's still there, but for some reason it doesn't seem to bother me.. mentally. My mother seems to think its just a "fatty cell.." But then she also thinks my heart pain is just gas. UGH! I'm just realizing I'm more screwed up then I really want to be.. Or really want to admit.

I am not for sure but you could check into the free clinic..If they wont do it then i am sure they could direct you to the right place for you since you dont have insurance...I had a very sore spot a few months back..I went for a mamm and they said no its nothin..Well i was still freakin out so i went to the library ..Like i always do...LOL,,Anyway i cut back on my caffeine..i mean way back and within a week it was gone..Im not sayin for sure thats whats wrong with you but its worth a try..I drink waaaaaaayyyyyyy too much coffee..Esp if i am busy..so i have to watch that i get all kinds of aches and pains actually ..when i cut back it all goeas away....Please call your local free clinic soon..the worrying will make you nutts and isnt good for your sobriety....I left you a pm as well look in the upper right hand corner of your screen where it says private mess..have a greatfull day

I lost my mom when I was 11, she was 42, to breast cancer. She was told that the tumors were benign for years by a quack (pardon the pun) doctor. When I was 5, a new doctor told her they were malignant, had been all along probably, and that the cancer had spread throughout her body in that time. I've been having mammograms since I was 23. It's important. If necessary, I FIND the money, rob peter to pay paul, but it's important - if I don't, both peter and paul might never get paid.

Dont freak about the fatty lump sheryl, if a lump is soft,rubbery,roundish,not stuk to the wall of hest, or to the surfase of the skin, is tender at times with the menstrual pattern ,or tender at all,and moves around within the breast its probably a fibroadenoma,they are are harmless,but may grow quite large.Or a syst, whih may need draining,and kan return. a 'bad' lump is likely to be hard like a stone,uneven, stays in one plase,is painless,and there may be dimpling of the skin in your breast.there maybe palpable glands above or below the kollar bone, below is worse. also in the arm pits their maybe glands.veins on the breast may stand out more than usual, the nipple may be pukkered in (only a worry if this is a new development).any fluid from the nipple should be reported too.
you are more likely to be affekted if you:-
- had your period early, and had a late menopause.
-A family history of a klose female relative suffering from it
- you drink alkohol
- you are white middle klass
- you never had kids,or the first late in life
- you are overweight
- you have a history of benign systs
This is just a set of rules of the thumb, and there are always ekseptions. ALWAYS see your GP if you find a lump. sorry about my dodgy keyboard girls!!
love and breast health to all!!

Red face cancer, bipolar, drug addict, alcoholic, name it

I'm bipolar, an addict, alcoholic, beat breast cancer 2 years ago and now have it in my bone (broke my pelvis 3/2 as a result). I just need a friend who understands. All my other friends seem to have disappeared and my family just can't stand me. They are mostly clinically depressed anyway. Is someone out there who will talk to me?

Hi Flap,

Welcome! I'm Anna, alcoholic and I'm glad you found us here. I know that we can drive our friends away as addicts, but I also know that when we get sick a lot of our friends can disappear. Sometimes people just don't want to be around someone who is ill. We are a great bunch of friends here and I'm glad you've joined us.

I'm sorry to hear that you have cancer now and I hope that you have treatments that will work well for you. I'm always on and off the computer so you can PM me anytime if you want.

Love, Anna
