Breast cancer is very prevalent in my family and I've been too busy for a mammogram. If any of you have had breast cancer does it hurt and ache? Or could it just be hormonal changes I have?

Some have pain with breast cancer, but what is really scary is that a lot of women HAVE NO SYMPTOMS. No pain, no discharge, sometimes they won't even feel the lump that is growing within their breast. If breast cancer is prevalent in your family, I would strongly suggest that you take the time to get that mammogram. IF there is cancer, the sooner it is detected, the more successful treatment will be.

Sometimes you can have pain with breast cancer, but most breast cancers do not present with pain. Also, you can have breast pain that is caused things other than breast cancer. This is why we have breast cancer screening, because there are no reliable signs whether you have, or don't have, breast cancer. A screening program is anything that is designed to detect a condition in the general public. If all breast cancers caused pain the instant they occurred, there would be no need to screen women for it, because all cases of breast cancer would then be detectable by virtue of having breast pain. In the field of breast cancer, because it has been studied so extensively, there are very clear guidelines on detection and screening and every woman should familiarize themselves with them. Visit the American College of Radiology web site, or ask you doctor.

I am an alternative medicinal therapist and an ex nurse. You don't always have pain, have you felt for any lumps around your breasts or armpits.It may be your glands or your hormones but please go and see a GP your heath should come first. If you keep putting it off and have breast cancer it will soon be to late for any treatment and it can be fatal. Gloria(BSYA) gloriashealth@btinternet.com
