It’s getting harder to forget we are waiting to see what is growing. Next week I do a ctDNA blood test. If I have a specific mutation, there’s a med for that. I have no idea if it’s worse or better than Lynparza. I’m tired. I’m trying not to “worry”, but the nameless fear always lurks in the background. #breastcancer #mbc #brca #stage4 #metastaticbreastcancer #neurographicart
Hands up if you've been told to "just stay positive." 🙌 Yaaaaa ok - that's not super helpful...right? It's not all about being positive (aka toxic positivity). It's normal to feel highs and lows during cancer. But here is the key! Things can get really dark if you feel isolated and don't have a plan on how to heal. I've personally witnessed so many women struggle through chemo treatments thinking it's the norm to feel EXHAUSTED and stuck in bed. (that's not normal and doesn't need to be like that) Instead you need a plan on how you can best support your body in recovering while you are in treatment and once you have done! Here it is! The Cancer Freedom Program is open for enrolment now. BUT we are closing the doors on April 22nd. Don't miss out on your chance to get a personalized, step by step plan to give you the best shot at being well and staying cancer free. Comment below "Program" and I will send you the direct link to apply.

June 2016 my kids turned 4 and 7, but we could not make them birthday parties. I was in chemo and couldn’t risk getting sick.

Check your breasts, your testicles, your moles, your mouth. Note any abnormalities. Make the doctor’s appointment that you have been putting off. Know your body. Know your normal. 🎗️ Early Detection Saves Lives 🎗️ #feelitonthefirst #knowyournormal #earlydetectionsaveslives #breastcancersurvivor #brca #brca1 #doublemastectomy

Herzlich Willkommen auf meiner #Couch... Ich liege leider völlig platt rum. Angesteckt an den Kids. Mit schwerem Herzen habe ich die Einladung zu einer Hochzeitsparty für dieses Wochenende absagen müssen. Meine beste Freundin rief an und auf einmal ist mir etwas bewusst geworden und um das zu erklären, müssen wir gemeinsam ein paar Jahre zurück. 2013 - ein Jahr was für mich das beschissenste in meinem ganzen Leben bleiben wird. Ich habe Manja verloren und eine BRCA Diagnose bekommen. Von einem Tag auf dem anderen hieß es für mich zu Ärzten gehen, mich mit Krankenkassen auseinandersetzen& Krankenhausaufenthalte planen. Mein Terminkalender war voll mit Terminen. Um ehrlich zu sein war ich von 2013 bis 2016 mehrfach jedes Jahr im Krankenhaus. Schnell wurde ich von meiner Außenwelt "Die, die vielleicht mal Krebs bekommt" , "Die, die ständig irgendwas hat", " Die, die mehr Unterstützung benötigt". Und ich meinte auch in Fragen die nach meinem Befinden sich richteten einen gewissen Unterton raus zuhören. Erst letztens wurde gefragt ob ich noch gesund bin oder schon etwas ausgebrochen ist! ...und ja ich weiß, dass das alles lieb gemeint ist. Als endlich dieses ganze Möpsekrebsthema überstanden war, habe ich es genossen gesund zu sein, keine ständigen Arzttermine zu haben und dennoch passiert es, dass wenn ich doch krank werde wie jetzt mit Fieber& Erkältungssymptomen, ich es kaum ertrage, das zuzugeben. Lieber gehe ich noch mit 40 Fieber arbeiten. Tja und dann sagt heute meine Freundin am Telefon zu mir: "Ich bin super stolz auf Dich, das du trotzdem jetzt auf dich achtest und nicht zur Party fährst! Weil ich weiß wie wichtig es dir ist und du so ungern mal zugibst, wenn es dir nicht gut geht." Dieser Satz bringt mich wirklich zum Nachdenken. Ich habe irgendwie versucht niemanden mehr Schwäche zu zeigen, damit eben nicht mehr ich die bin die vielleicht mal ... Ich wollte einfach nicht mehr so wahrgenommen werden. Weil ich eben mehr bin, als BRCA1, mehr als die Jahre 2013- 2016, mehr in mir steckt als diese ganzen Komplikationen... Ich bin mehr... #Arschbrueste #mastektomie #brca #krank #mindset #überkrebssprechen #dubistnichtallein #pinkribbon #breastawareness
Breast Cancer awareness time…. Getting into a habit of feeling it on the first of month is one good way to remember and be self aware. We have already shared so many stories of young women affected by breast cancer, and no two of them presented the same. Remember it’s not all lumps and bumps - a change in size of one breast, discharge from the nipple, a sore not healing, skin texture change, or a thickening. Remember to check in different positions as the muscles can hide some lumps. Once a month checking should be the minimum as early diagnosis helps the chance of curable treatment. It can affect any age, and does not discriminate. As part of our campaign for women’s health this year we are working with several charities, swipe right for the information provided by @pinkribbonfoundation and visit our website for more links for information. If in doubt always see your GP! Mortal And Strong is a campaign shining the spotlight on women facing their own mortality - those affected at a young age by a life changing illness or disease. Using art & the power of voice to empower, support charities and change the narrative of social stigmatisation of disease.

A menopausa não é uma doença, é uma fase natural da vida! À medida que avançamos na jornada da vida nosso corpo passa por várias transformações e a menopausa é uma delas. É um momento de renovação, não de limitação. Não aceite nem trate a menopausa como uma doença. Em vez disso, veja-a como uma oportunidade para redobrar os cuidados com sua saúde, especialmente a prevenção do câncer de mama. A prevenção é poderosa e está ao seu alcance através de autoconhecimento das mamas, hábitos saudáveis, consultas regulares e exames de rotina. A mamografia é uma ferramenta essencial na detecção precoce do câncer de mama, e sua importância cresce ainda mais durante e após a menopausa. Não deixe de realizar seus exames anuais e de manter um diálogo aberto com seu médico sobre quaisquer mudanças ou preocupações. Lembre-se: cuidar de si mesma é o primeiro passo para uma vida plena e saudável em todas as suas fases. A menopausa é apenas mais uma etapa e você tem o poder de vivê-la com saúde, alegria e plenitude. Dra.

#reminders : Regular Checkups are important! Regular breast cancer screenings are an important tool that can detect breast cancer years before symptoms develop. Early detection is key, because success rates are much higher when breast cancer is detected and treated during early stages. That’s why mammograms are part of standard annual healthcare practices for women over 40. . #breasthealth #breastcancer #breastcancerawareness #womenshealth #breastcancersurvivor #cancer #mammogram #health #brca #earlydetection #survivor

Hi, I’m Gila Pfeffer, breast cancer previvor, survivor and prevention advocate. This month’s post-FEEL IT ON THE FIRST: Shabbat cooking edition.

About half of early miscarriages happen when the embryo does not develop properly. This often is due to an abnormal number of chromosomes. Chromosomes are in each cell of the body and carry the blueprints (genes) for how people develop and function. The most commonly identified causes include uterine problems, hormonal disorders, and genetic abnormalities. #ColorsLab #GeneticTesting #HealthMatters #GeneticScreening #Dnalife #cancer #brca #Medical #CML #ColorsMedicalLabs Let us know if you have any questions. 📱 Mobile 01028035937 01061999378 📞 Landline 0225264169 📧 Email [email protected] 📍 Address 51, 105 st, El-Etehad Square, El-Maadi, Cairo

Another one of the 100 Voices and we have the fabulous and life-embracing Jules sharing her journey with incurable lung cancer. Jules was diagnosed 2 years ago in her late 30’s with incurable lung cancer. The rare cancer had already spread to her pelvis, spine and more recently recognised her brain. Jules talks so openly and honestly about how she was immediately devastated, fearing she had months to live, and how the realisation that modern medications and the support of the palliative care team have allowed her to live well two years on. Whilst being honest about the realities of the medications, the highs and lows of being a parent with an incurable disease, Jules has adapted an incredibly inspiring philosophical approach to life and her mortality. Jules talks about the stigma of disease and the taboo subject of being told ‘but you look so well’. Jules also discusses the prejudice surrounding lung cancer and having a less obvious cancer as a young woman, the prejudice of people presuming it is a smoking-related cancer and opens up the conversation to address the need to break these taboos in society. Honoured to have Jules as one of our Voices and Ambassador for Mortal And Strong. Mortal and Strong is a campaign shining the spotlight on women facing their own mortality - those affected at a young age by a life changing illness or disease. 100 artworks produced by artists across the country along with a powerful photography series ‘Scars of Gold’ inspired by kintsugi. The voices will share their stories through the podcast released bi-weekly. Through the project Mortal And Strong will be featuring and collaborating with up to 20 chosen charities that are linked with the topics discussed in the project - to raise awareness of their work, fundraise for them with our exhibition and signpost people to right places for support. @lizmurrayart @baldbooblessandbeautiful @just_beingjules #hope #mas #mortalandstrong #iammortalandstrong #mortality #strength #women #strongwomen #womenshealth #breastcancer #sbc #secondarycancer #secondarybreastcancer #vulvalcancer #cervicalcancer #brca #lungcancer #secondarylungcancer st
@nhsengland is inviting record numbers of women for breast screening, yet 1 in 2 choose not to come forward for their first appointment. Regular breast screening can find breast cancer before you notice any signs or symptoms. If you have missed a screening, it’s not too late. Contact your local service to make an appointment today: https://www.nhs.uk/service-search/other-health-services/breast-screening-services

Another hospital… for another scan. Yesterday morning I went for a DEXA scan. A DEXA scan is like a mini X-ray that measures bone density / strength. DEXA scans can explain your risk for osteoporosis / bone loss and risk of fractures too. Being in surgical menopause with no HRT my risks of decreasing bone health are higher than normal. So with all the many aches and pains and creeks and cracks, oncology agreed to send me for a DEXA. See what the results in a few weeks. Found out my BMI was 26. Something I haven’t really taken note of before. Not bad for a short arse 😂 I had a follow up with gynae last week. The consultant has agreed I’m ok to manage without HRT for now if it suits me. Risk to benefit ratio of HRT is questioned daily in my brain when the pains kick off and the tiredness kicks in. I’m just not ready yet for the possible increased risk for a maybe benefit. #surgicalmenopause #dexascan #neverending #lifeaftercancer #brca #earlymenopause #riskreducingsalpingooophorectomy #riskvsreward
Vandaag is mijn allerlaatste werkdag tot mijn operatie. Voor mijn gevoel toch niet helemaal klaar voor omdat er nog zoveel bestellingen zijn! Aan de andere kant loop ik wel goed op schema met beloofde levertijden. Met de operatie zelf ben ik nog niet echt bezig maar dat zal vast als ik voor het ziekenhuis sta ineens allemaal op me afkomen! Ik maak van het weekend automatische berichten aan, zodat ik ook even niet hoef te reageren. Is natuurlijk niet zo persoonlijk maar ik moet echt even mijn herstel gaan pakken na de operatie. Ik hoop en denk dat ik daarna snel weer aan de slag kan💪 En we doen het natuurlijk voor mijn gezondheid. Van 60 % kans op borstkanker naar 1 % 🫶🙏 Liefs van mij

Beware of this one! So many women have told me that even though radiation was physically easier than chemo, they were much more emotional during the process. It was the time they found themselves feeling weepy and emotional when up until that point, they had kept it all together. ☁️ I am NOT a mental health care practitioner. I am simply sharing what I have observed so if it happens to you, you dont have that awful feeling of feeling even more alone or surprised by your emotions. ☁️ I do have some personal theories as to why this happens. For a lot of women, radiation happens months into your diagnosis when shock has begun to wear off and the “new reality” is really sinking in. There is only so long you can keep a smile on your face before the rest of the emotions crack through. Radiation really challenges your endurance: you have to go Every. Single. Day. So that’s every day you are reminded of your diagnosis. Every day you are lying in that cold room in a hospital gown. Every day you see the other cancer patients in the waiting room. It’s A LOT! ☁️ So when preparing for radiation don’t just think about your skin, prepare for your mental health too! If you don’t already have a therapist, ask for a referral from your doctor. Be kind to yourself, you’re going through a lot. ☁️ If you found this helpful, please share so that others are prepared for radiation too! 💙🙏 #radiationtherapy #brca #tnbc #lifeafterbreastcancer #mastectomyrecovery #breastcancersurvivor #youngbreastcancer #breastcancerunder40 #radiationoncology
Not to mention the (nearly) 20 artists, 100 Voices, charity collaborations, and the MAS community that supports us! … From the original concept to how things are evolving as we have registered for charity status the team is ever evolving to adapt to the needs of the campaign. A campaign putting the spotlight on women facing their mortality at a young age. Women diagnosed with incurable or life changing illness. Addressing the stigma of disease to educate, empower and emphasise messages of strength and hope. A powerful campaign using photography inspired by the Japanese art of Kintsugi - Scars of Gold. Sharing the voices of 100 women on our podcast. An exhibition of 100 artworks produced by emerging and acclaimed artists all over the UK. Everyone is a volunteer, everyone is using their skillset to come together to help execute a large National campaign to put a spotlight on health inequalities. Using a multi-pronged approach (podcasts, photography, art) and in collaboration with multiple charities like @pinkribbonfoundation we are doing something never before done on this level. The team behind the scenes are doing their parts to help bring this together and the trustees are laying the foundations to be able to repeat the campaign addressing other health inequalities in future years. To find out more, or to donate to contribute, visit the website! Tag, share, spread the word. Across 2024 we are releasing two new voices every week and building up to a major fundraising exhibition in 2025 to support multiple charities across the UK. @lizmurrayart @samwestonphotography @eleanorlucy87 @camillafellasarnold @just_beingjules @phillips.sarahjane @mrsachard @amy_webber3 @k_j_s_f_w @baldbooblessandbeautiful @nirusha_vigi @pinkribbonfoundation #hope #mas #mortalandstrong #iammortalandstrong #mortality #strength #women #strongwomen #womenshealth #breastcancer #sbc #secondarycancer #secondarybreastcancer #vulvalcancer #cervicalcancer #endometriosis #endo #endowarrior #pcos #adenomyosis #infertility #fertility #menopause #cancer #her2 #brca

Our friendly breast ultrasound technologist wants to remind you that Early Detection is Key! Breast ultrasound is primarily used to help physicians diagnose potential breast abnormalities previously detected by physical examination or mammography. Ultrasound can determine the difference between solid masses in breast tissue and fluid-filled cysts. It can also help determine whether a solid mass is a potentially cancerous tumor or a non-cancerous growth. #Breastlink #BreastUltrasound . . . . . . . . . . #BreastCare #BreastCancer #AwarenessIsPower #3DMammogram #Mammogram #CheckYourself #BreastCancerCare #BreastCancerEducation #BreastCancerAwareness #BreastSurgeon #Oncology #Ultrasound #Radiologist #BreastSpecialist #BRCA #BreastHealth #WomensHealth #BreastCancerFighter #CancerRisk #BreastCancerSupport #BreastExam #MetastaticBreastCancer #TripleNegativeBreastCancer #BRCAStrong #InvasiveBreastCancer #BreastCancerResearch #EarlyDetection
In May 2021 my mother died of triple negative breast cancer I get to have more birthdays because before she died she had a genetic panel done. Her genetic panel revealed she had the Palb2 mutation That genetic mutation has only been linked to cancer since 2014. Her first run with breast cancer was prior to 2014. If you had breast cancer prior to 2014 you also were not tested for palb2. Call your oncologist or genetic counselor and ask them to run another genetic gene panel for breast cancer mutations. There are Many many more than in the first decade of the 2000’s Have MORE birthdays cause you have more info, give your kids a better chance at life. Test your genes.

Life lately 5 - part two // The only person I “knew” with a gene mutation was Angelina Jolie, who had preventative surgery on her breasts and ovaries. I felt pretty alone with it. But finally, I got educated about the risks and prevention possibilities, all covered by the German health care system. In my case, I could choose between a double mastectomy or facing a 90% risk of getting breast cancer again. As you can imagine, I went for the former, even though it doesn’t eliminate the risk completely, it sure reduces it a lot. As for my ovaries, I still have a few years before I need to deal with that. Nowadays, there are amazing opportunities to rebuild a breast after amputation. The results can look amazing, however, it will never feel and be the same. Through social media, I found other carriers of the gene who had a mastectomy and reconstruction. I felt, if they can go through this, I can too. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ The 31 days between my last chemo and the surgery were the hardest mentally for me in the whole journey so far. I felt an overwhelming grief about losing my breasts forever. Even writing these sentences, my eyes start watering again. As many times before in my life, music and singing saved me. But this time it wasn’t just singing, it was bhakti, devotion to the Divine. So I went to a three-day kirtan festival, chanting all day long. After this nourishing weekend, I felt like I was going to be okay. And I am. I’m still recovering from that intense operation, and I’m still getting used to my new appearance. I don’t know how my body will change with further therapies, but right now, I feel like I’ll be fine. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Although a gene mutation is rare, breast cancer and physical changes resulting from cancer treatments are not. We need to discuss these issues so that no one feels alone, and because knowledge and education can save lives! So, if you’re thinking about getting tested because of your family history, but you’re scared like I was, I’m here to encourage you to get educated and take the test before something happens. And if you’re considering a mastectomy for any reason, you’re not alone! If I can go through this, you can too 🫰🏽

שמי בת-חן ובינואר השנה התבשרתי שאני נשאית מוטציית BRCA2. מאז לומדת לחיות עם זה בשלום - ההלם עדיין קיים. הבדיקות עוד לא נעשו כולן, הלמידה "מה זה אומר" רק בשלבי התחלה, אז בחרתי לא לגשת לזה לבד ולצרף לתהליך שלי כל מי שתבחר. My name is Bat-Chen and in January this year I found out I am a carrier of BRCA2 mutation. I am still in shock and figuring out what it means to love with it. I did not do all the tests yet, so I decided not to approach this alone and share my process with whomever wants. #gynocologicalcancers #breastcancer #brca #brca2 #סרטןשחלות#סרטןהשד #healing #womanimpowerment #smileandtherestwillfollow #maditation #breathe #yogaandmindfulness #goodbrcagenes
When your doctor recommends additional breast screenings, you may have questions and concerns about what to expect, the reasons behind the extra tests and what the results might indicate. It's important to communicate openly with your healthcare provider, asking about the purpose of each screening, the procedures involved and any potential risks or benefits. Understanding these aspects can help alleviate anxiety and empower you to make informed decisions about your health. That’s why Feel For Your Life launched a new AI tool this year to help you build a better relationships with you medical providers. BreastFriendAI provides you with guidance on how to have the conversations that align with the goals for your health.

Обязательно сдайте этот анализ если у вас в семье были случаи рака яичников, молочной, предстательной или поджелудочной железы👇🏻 Не забудьте поставить ❤️, вам не сложно, а для меня важно. Итак, есть определённые гены, контролирующие патологические мутации в клетках нашего тела. Сегодня речь о генах BRCA 1 и BRCA2. Поломка в них приводит к онкологии вышеперечисленных структур. Помните, долго обсуждали историю о том, что Анджелина Джоли удалила молочные железы и яичники? Так вот именно поэтому. Её мать, бабушка и тётя умерли от онкологии, о которой я сегодня говорю. Джоли перестраховалась. У них у всех было эта генетическая мутация. У Джоли тоже. Поломка передается по наследству. Если в вашем роду были случаи, то вероятность, что мутация есть и у вас составляет 30%. А сама распространённость мутации около 1:1000. Мне кажется много. Причём проявиться онкология может именно в молодом возрасте – в районе 30 лет. ❗️На генетические мутации BRCA 1 и 2 можно сдать анализ в лаборатории. Он так и называется. Сдаётся венозная кровь, ну либо берут анализ на гистологическое исследование с операции или биопсии. Зная результаты, в будущем можно минимизировать риски этих видов рака. Знать об этом нужно, хоть и страшно. И в случае, если поломка есть, вам придётся проходить УЗИ, маммографию и т.д. 1 раз в 6 месяцев. Если в семье ни у кого такого рака не было, сдавать анализ не нужно. Понимаете, наследственная предрасположенность к заболеваниям – это только лишь предрасположенность. Сыграет ли она фатальную роль в вашей жизни или нет во многом зависит от вас: от вашего образа жизни, от вашего мировосприятия, от психо-эмоционального состояния, на которое во многом влияете вы сами. 👉🏻 Если вы идёте по пути деградации, негативизма, тревожности, гиподинамии и стресса, то у вас есть все шансы столкнуться лицом к лицу со своей наследственностью. И ещё, лишний вес – это фактор повышенного риска онкологии. Дополнительная жировая ткань – это источник эстрогенов. А множество женских опухолей и эндометриоз берут свое начало как раз там. Поэтому 👇🏻 Карусель ↗️
