    I am curious to know if many of this group of people have been on HRT for long periods of time.   I have been and the thought of doing this to yourself is not good.

    @jennyss - I was amazed when suggested I go face down for rads - maybe my 50 years of not wearing bras had 'elongated' them a tad!?  LOL

    @eewart - @Romla has a thread on HRT & BC - you can check it out here

    @eewart I was on hrt for 8 months before I was diagnosed with breast cancer, told to get off it immediately which I did, I had a 3.8cm tumour and off 24 lymph nodes removed 23 had cancer in them even after chemo, when I had the  core biopsie done in the first place got told no lymph node involvement when they did the ultrasound on my armpit, that to this day I still can’t work out how they came to that conclusion when so many were involved
