I am so sorry that you have taken my comments in a negative way, it is never my intention for anyone to think they should blame themselves for their breast cancer diagnosis or a recurrence.
As I pointed out even those who are the fittest in their life can be diagnosed or have their cancer progress.
I only wish their was a silver bullet of treatment, exercise or psychology that would give everyone reassurance - but we are long way off that. All we can do is provide the latest research and information, and for each individual to do what is right for them in consultation with their medical team.
Everyone's situation is so unique and I really appreciate the discussions.
@traveltext I have lodged an inquiry around MRI access for males - MRI access for those at risk is part of our current discussions with Government as many of our members are facing out of pocket costs in this area - so we have asked for a specific response to your post.
