At what age should I get my first mammogram according to the episode Female Hormone Health, PCOS, Endometriosis, Fertility & Breast Cancer | Dr. Thaïs Aliabadi and the clip Breast Cancer Awareness?
I have a question and some concerns about my recent diagnosis. This past February, I was diagnosed with Her2- ER/PR+ breast cancer following a biopsy after a mammogram. I have zero cancer in my family, and while I haven’t lived the most healthy lifestyle, I was shocked by this diagnosis. ... I want to buck the system and shake up the cancer industry. I KNOW there have to be options. I have quickly learned that cancer is a HUGE business, and one I would rather not buy into. Ultimately, I want to live, but I DO NOT WANT TO DO CHEMO. Please help me or tell me who can assist me. Thank you.
