hi doc She

[FOURever]

ask ko lang po, may mga studies or proven na ba na nakakainhibit or nakakagamot ng breast cancer ang malunggay?

[green-aholic]

joining the thread..

[DocShe_713]

Fourever- sad to say, there are no adequate evidences to prove that malunggay can treat breast cancer.

pvie- Hi! How was your ultrasound result?

[hakunamatata]

Hi sisses,

Pa join po...I also undergone 2 breast excision biopsy (November 2009 & December 2010). [textspeak!] nman ng doctor its Fibroadenoma pero syempre [textspeak!] we have history of cancer kya pra mrule out [textspeak!] cancer thng pinabiopsy.

Share ko lang [textspeak!] experience ko....

I was diagnosed with 2 breast lumps on my left breast. My first biopsy is at Manila Medical Center the operation lasted for 1hr. then [textspeak!] nakuha skin around 2cm pra syang ipin na may root flesh ang color. Kukunin na dapat [textspeak!] another one [textspeak!] lumubog sya hindi na makapa nung doctor I dunno what happen. Kaya naiwan pa dun.Hindi namn masyado masakit and mabilis din mag heal nung wound pero [textspeak!] scar andun pa din.Ok lang [textspeak!] medyo nsa 7:00 nman sya ng breast ko.

Then this year tinanggal na [textspeak!] isa after one year ng first biopsy ko.It was done at South Luzon Medical Center. Ito ang medyo ouchy [textspeak!] malaki [textspeak!] compare dun sa nauna.nahirapan nga si doc sa pagtanggal [textspeak!] pag kinakapa maliit lang sya then pag bukas nya malaki pala. Masakit [textspeak!] malaki [textspeak!] tahi at malaki din [textspeak!] tinanggal. [textspeak!] pa nman result ng biopsy ko [textspeak!] after two weeks pa daw ang labas. Just hoping na ok ang result.

Ngayon ang hirap gumalaw [textspeak!] khit one week na [textspeak!] operation makirot kirot pa din sya. Kaya hinay hinay lang ang movement.

Question na din madali ba [textspeak!] mahapo or mapagod pag kakagaling lang sa operation though minor? tia!

[DocShe_713]

hakunamatata- actually it doesn't cause easy fatigability after any surgery unless you have any pre existing conditions even before surgery was done.

[hakunamatata]

doc what do you mean by pre existing condition?

[hakunamatata]

doc ask ko lang po [textspeak!] kaka pa undergone ko lang po ng minor operation last December 20 puede na po ba ako bmiyahe manila to vigan 8 hours ang byahe?

[DocShe_713]

hakunamatata- pre existing condition like heart diseases, lung problems. basically any medical problem.

[DocShe_713]

hakunamatata- yes travelling is fine.

hi Doc She,

during our ape, nakapa nung lady doctor na may lump ako sa left breast. so she asked me to undergo ultrasound.

i got the result two weeks ago, and meron ngang mass, somewhere at 11o'clock left breast around 1.5 cm, and labelled as 4B - intermediate suspicion of malignancy.

i immediately consulted Surgeon A, ang gusto nya ipa-biopsy agad kahit dahil im below 35yrs old and no family history ng mga cancer.

Surgeon B naman seemed so cool about it. di nga nya nakapa nung una. kung sya daw masusunod, repeat ultrasound lang daw muna after 6 months. kasi it's below 2cm daw, and wala daw ako sa bracket ng high risk.

i went back to lady doctor and surgeon A. for both of them kasi, mas gusto nila ipa biopsy agad. kung ayaw ko naman daw muna, instead of waiting for 6 months, shorter term na lang daw, that is, after 3 months na lang. both ultrasound and mri pa to be sure.

way back 1999 and 2002, natanggalan na ako ng fibrocystic sa right breast. pero yung nakapa nila sa left, medyo kakaiba daw ang characteristics nya.

what do you think dra?

[DocShe_713]

socxy mom- First, have it check to make sure if surgery is really indicated. Next, if surgery is done, then usually the recovery period is 1 week.

[DocShe_713]

kurengkeng- hi there, I would usually examine the patient and correlate it with my ultrasound findings meaning I would examine and check out the character and description of each and every breast masses there is. If I agree with the Ultrasound result then biopsy will be advised.
