Great write up, @traveltext. How totally unfair tho, that your daughter can access high risk screening, but not your son. That is a terrible injustice. :(
I hope this is rectified quickly. How many other cancers have 'gender inequality'?
When I read of cancer treatment/protocols - it is usually for lung cancer, or stomach cancer - not 'female lung cancer' vs 'male lung cancer'?
Granted, way less men are diagnosed with BC than women - but the process is the same - and therefore, the protocol should be fully inclusive of both men AND women!
