It is that time of year again, when I get my yearly mammogram. Last year I had a couple cyst show up that gave me a scare. This year they are still there, but no change which is a good thing. Mine are just liquid, nothing to worry about.
I watched a video that talked about breast tissue density. I have dense breast tissue so this is important to me and I gives me more questions to ask my doctor. I do not know the density of my breasts, but plan to ask my doctor on my next visit. I strongly suggest that you look into finding out where you fall on the density scale.
I have a history of breast cancer on both sides of my family, aunts, cousins, and great aunts.
I am passing this list of videos on cancer because they touched a nerve with me and I hope that it touches one with you. One of them in particular talks about breast density.
