I wanted to show every woman how to properly check her breasts. This is the first in a series of 4 videos. I’ll post them all as a thread on Friday. First we need to talk about looking in the mirror
U.S. Army veteran Daniel Wilkinson, of Texas, died of a treatable illness because the Covid crisis left him without an available ICU bed even though he lives 3 houses down from an emergency room and 60 miles away from some of the greatest healthcare facilities in the world.
@LBSamuelsson @roknrolzombie I suspect you think it looks bad to you because it is not your “real” hair. Maybe if you try to have fun with it using gel or temporary color for a more edgy look.
The Breast of Us has a community survey on Race, Culture, and Clinical Trial Perceptions. Survey participants of color, especially those of Asian descent, are needed. Please share. Historically, PoC have been underrepresented and underserved. https://t.co/tQArfB0VS3
Preventive cancer screenings plummeted during the height of the #COVID19 pandemic. They've since returned to pre-COVID-19 levels, but cancer prevention experts are worried about those who've fallen through the cracks. https://t.co/iIDYOrDafY
Survivor SAKE hasn’t been able to train together because of the pandemic. But I am proud to say because of virtual training I kept up with the SAKE Masters team in practice. I couldn’t compete at their level but I won in my fight for health as a #cancer survivor. #DragonBoating
For example, if you're told your breast lump is just a cyst, make them drain it to be certain. Don't wait another 9 months, like I did...and now stage 4. I believe my outcome would have been different if I'd be braver at the time 😪😪
@HeyNowCaroline It may take a week or so but you will figure out what works best for you. Even those who aren’t in chemo have times when they concentrate better or need rest. It is just more important to pay attention to what works on chemo. Do your best to eat right, move around and rest.
Recent findings showed that the cost of cancer care affects nearly half of women with gynecologic cancer, with younger and/or non-white patients at higher risk for financial toxicity. @BethisraelD
