Could I be diagnosed with BC like my sister?

 Hi Guys,

I have posted this in "not diagnosed" but thought I could add my post here too, hope that's okay

I'm a newbie member as of today. Love this site and have trawled through reading loads of posts and threads, awesome stuff!

It is so sad to read of so much cancer, it's likened to a "modern day plague" in my way of thinking.

I too await tests which are still a few weeks away. Have a suss lump in right breast, warmth feeling in right breast and tenderness in the right breast and a tenderness right armpit but no lump. I'm generally sooooooooooo tired it drives me to feel yuck at times, but other than that I feel great, positive and are currently on a weight-loss journey. (I am 48)

My younger sister now 44 was diagnosed with BC 8 years ago and has had an 8 year battle of fighting numerous new spreads, hers was an aggressive pos BC at the onset but she has beat all odds to date! Her specialist said in his 22 years she is the only patient ever to live past 4 months of the 3rd battle which she has fought the past 12 + months! She is unwell at present and this past 6 - 12 months have changed her personality for the worst. She has become a horrid, cruel, vindictive woman which has caused much heartache. I have heard this can be quite common towards the end ? What are others experiences in this ? My sister and I were once inseparable and the bestest friends in the world and 7 months ago she blamed me for her cancer and cut me off with such hatred. She wants nothing to do with me and all I can say to her is that I love her and no matter what she has said to hurt me I forgive her and will always be there for her if she needs me.

Now several months later I face tests for BC in the same breast! ha! My Doc is very concerned given my sisters history and we have the same doctor, so I'm off for a mammogram but it's a long wait, 16th March.

For me, I have decided I won't be having any kind of treatment though, I will do "heal thyself" through diet and positive affirmations. Has anyone here opted for natural healing rather than chemo and radiation?

Phewwwwwwww, well that was long winded ..... Would love to read your response and thanks for having me
