Fighting Breast Cancer
About one in eight women will develop #breastcancer during her lifetime,
and aside from skin cancer, breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed #cancer
in women. Although death rates from breast cancer have thankfully declined over
the last several years, it's still important to check yourself for breast
cancer. Breast Cancer can be devastating for any woman. If you are above 50,
your struggle will increase significantly. There are a few things that you can
do apart from the treatment that will help you fight breast cancer. This
includes keeping your weight in check, being physically active, eating fruits and
vegetables, avoid alcohol and cigarettes, etc. Getting yourself educated
regarding breast cancer is the most important step. You need to learn all there
is to learn about your cancer and what are the best ways to treat it. There are
two types of patients. After getting diagnosed with cancer, some of them want
to know everything they can immediately. Then there are others who aren't
comfortable knowing too much about their condition. Whether you want to know
everything about your condition or not, you need to talk to your #doctor and
resolve all your queries. Write down all the questions you have before meeting
with the doctor. It is always good to have a friend or a family member
accompany you to your appointments. They not only provide support but also act
as another set of ears. A friend is a much better option in this case because
family members are too close to this and are as upset and emotionally
vulnerable as the patient. Many cancer patients fear consciously or
subconsciously that if they get upset about something, their family members or
the doctors will abandon them. This fear multiplies tenfold when the patients
are old because they know they will need their support. Speaking with other #survivors
will not only give you hope but also help in getting the right treatment. Many
previous cancer patients volunteer to help other #cancer patients with the same
diagnosis. Breast cancer is one of the most treatable forms of cancer, but when
it #metastasizes in its later stages, removing tumors becomes more difficult,
which can have a significant effect on the survival rate.
