interesting...

left breast, left handed, upper 12 o'clock , sleep on left side or tummy, but I do all sports with right hand...yes, my generation teachers did not know what to do with lefties.  But I can't write or eat with my right hand...lefty

Really interesting!  Upper-inner (10:00) on left breast.  Left-handed for writing and throwing a baseball, but mostly right-hand dominent.  Sleep on my left side, on the left side of the bed.  :-)

Left lower quadrants about at 6 pm.  I'm a lefty and I used to sleep on my left side which is No longer comfortable.

MakeLemonade

Left side, upper, outer quadrant. Am very right handed and prefer to sleep on my right side. 

Was thinking about this a week or two ago :-). We have had close to 20 different women at work over the last 15 years. 3 of us with breast cancer. All 3 of us upper, outer quadrant.  2 right handed, 1 left handed. Other two DCIS, I had IDC. No idea as to sleep preferances for other two :-)

Dejaboo

Thank you Ladies, I have added all 3 of you.

MakeLemonade I have added your coworkers too.

Inner rt at 3 o'clock...not sure if that is upper or lower! Write and eat left-handed, most everything else is right. Sleep all over the place! That's kind of funny actually, my BC didn't know whether to be up or down or rt or left, in the middle....! Interesting survey. Maybe it should be submitted to a research study or someone that collects and reports data.

Dejaboo

ha ha.  yes keepthefaith you are all over the survey.  I put one in the higher % if they are right on the line (3oclock)  So I put you with the Upper inner quadrant

amarantha

Upper outer quadrant, left breast, opposite to side I mainly sleep on (although I toss and turn most every night a great deal), and opposite to dominant hand.

Dejaboo

Thanks amarantha!

MsPharoah

Upper outer, right side, right hand dominant (I'm a toss and turner...LOL) 

bearcub

left side upper outside 2-3 o'clock , dominant hand right..

Multicentric here - meaning tumor covered upper outer & inner quadrants, also cancer was on dominant hand (right) side, and also slept on that side more.  Weird.

Sunshineinky

Right breast inner @ 3:00.  Right handed. Sleep on left side.  I found this very interesting!! 

rettemich

This is really interesting. I am right side, 11:00 going down behind nipple. Left handed. Sleep on right. Think that covers it. Curious about the sleeping side and side of cancer.

Dejaboo

Updated!  Thank you

peacestrength

Right, deep at 3 o'clock.  Right handed and tatoo on right shoulder.  Also slept on right side for years.

grammakathy
