My grandma and mother both got diagnosed with breast cancer when they were 33, and my grandma only had it once, but my mother had it four times. i heard it was gentic, and i am wondering if maybe there is an oncologist that would know what my chances are. my grandma and mother both lived through all cancer(s). I am 12 right now.
Could it possibly be a genetic for someone to have colon cancer and needs a partial coloectomy and they dont need no treatment at this time such as, radiation or chemotherapy? Will this young person to have normal bowels again? Do doctors really recommend the person to be on a special diet? Does that means they have to wear a bag through their skin?
I have moderate cervical dysplasia and need a LEEP procedure done. I am a single mother of 4 and can’t come up with the $500 that our local clinic is charging for the procedure. How long can I safely wait before this gets worse and turns into cancer?
If cancer (any type) has been common in grandparents, great grandparents etc what are the chances that i will get some kind of cancer when i am older? Even when i live a healthy life and have not/do not smoke or drink?
I recently found out that my elderly neighbor has stage four stomach cancer. For the last month she has been going through intensive chemotherapy treatments and I saw her on Monday and she has already lost all her hair. She has no energy and is always nauseated and even has a difficult time taking in liquids. Before the cancer, she was such an active person, always working in her yard, cooking, and traveling with her husband. She has always been extra sweet towards my kids, giving them gifts at Christmas, bdays, etc…….What can I do to brighten up her day? Any ideas?
