Thank you! Eat up because boobs are fat.lol. You are elegant and beautiful. I am losing my tissue because I have lost weight from my cancer and stress. I wear a seriously padded bra.lol. Actually yesterday I wore no bra around the house. I didn't care. You will fill out over time. Age helps with that. I think being healthy is number 1.

Yes, therefore it dawned on me today I'll go swimming when I've healed completely and won't give a damn about what a whoever may think about me.
Hugs :-))

Yes ma'am! Worry about everyone else takes our joy away on life. I did it for years. It is liberating not to give a damn about others thoughts. Swimming sounds fun. I am proud of you! Big hugs! You got this.

My thoughts and prayers are with you ! I am really concerned I found a swollen lymph node in my right arm pit last year Its soft and moveable .. I went in and had specialist look at it they didn't ultra sound and told me it was a normal limits and there was nothing to worry about , I went and had blood work done like you for them lymphoma and all my blood came back fine . My WBC was a bit high but they said nothing to worry about , that it was probably just an infection . Now I have 2new swollen lymph nodes in my other arm pit ... Im getting very concerned but doctors tell me nothing to worry about ! they are not painful and they having grown in size . Can I ask you how your lymph nodes felt .. Where they soft and moveable or hard and fixed into place ... I feel like no doctor is taking me seriously ! I just had my implants removed on the 3rd of October . I hope and pray everything is going well with you , you'll kick cancers ass ! My mom just got diagnosed with acute leukemia ! She's in remission right now but they want to do a bone marrow transplant and she still has three more chemo sessions to do ! She's doing amazing ! Anyways I just really want to share that with you and I'm hoping you can help me to see if I need to really push more harder and get more opinions on my lymph nodes !
Thank you ,you are truly in my prayers !

Get them biospied immediately. Mine were soft and movable. Is is scary how similar we sound. That is exactly what happen to me. In my right arm pit and thwm the left. I had all the test ans my bloodstill was normal aafter my diagnosis. Please just trust me ans biospy. It is the only way to know for sure. I am living proof ot can be cancer with a normal level CBC. Push for your health. Thank you so much for your support and keep me updated. Love

I had 8 ultrasounds over the last yeat and a half. I had an MRI and a mamogram. They told me I was ok. I went to an ENT dr this year about the one on my neck and he said I was fine. I think because they ate trained to look at bloodwork. The nodes have gotten harder but for a long time they were soft. It is worth it to know. I wish I had done it after my first lymph node swelled up. My biospy did not hurt at all. Congrats on your moms remission! Transplant is really the only cure known for blood diseases. I will get one if mine returns. I had specialist telling me I was fine but I was not. It is in my bones and my blood did not show it. A bone marrow biospy confirmed it was in my bones. A PET scan detected where the cancer was after my biospy confirmed cancer. I will keep you and your mother in my prayers. Just remember the earlier you catch it the better Your prognosis. I am here for You if you need me. Big hugs! Xoxo

Hi lil boobs
I am going to see my PS on Monday , I will be making an appointment asap to have my lumps looked at right away ! I am totally scared . It makes me so upset that a doctor can disregard such an important test and tell us it's normal until it spreads to other lymph nodes .. I just went to see my obgyn and she told me not to worry about the new lumps I found because they're just like the ones on my right side so she wouldn't send me out to a specialist . She told me since I turn 40 I should go have a normal mammogram done though .
Thank you for your quick response I'm praying for the both of us ! i'll be keeping in touch and letting you know

Thank you for going. Get a full excision. That just means remove the whole node for pathology. Thesedoctors had me thinking I was paronoid and brushing me off. They were telling because I am thin I can feel my nodes which is not true because I have been small my whole life. Sorry to scare you. I just want you ro get a diagnosis quickly. Mine was a week. Also they may try to tell you to watch and wait, dont do it. Research. I will be here fpr you. Big hugs

That's how my doctor is acting like it's not a big deal that I'm over reacting and that it's nothing to worry about and I'm really freaking out because she just doesn't seem to be hearing my voice . At this point I just don't even know who to turn to because my doctor will not listen to me . And the place that I went to for my imaging test told me that they cannot see me even if I pay out-of-pocket without a referral from my doctor . It is crazy to me how doctors can just disregard what you're saying just because they feel that everything Is what they "so call " within normal limits. But it's funny when I asked them why my lmph node could be swollen and not painful nobody can give me an answer of what it could be I was just thinking that it was my silicone gel implants bleeding into my lymph node . My implants are the cohesive gel so i wasn't actually thinking the silicone had broke open and leaking out of the shell of the implant I just thought because we have so much bleeding that comes out of the silicon that my body was trying to fight off the foreign object that was in my body . I wish I can snap a picture of my test results to you showing the findings of my lymph nodes and the measurements that they were they said no suspicious nodules are seen two benign appearing lymph nodes are seen in the right axilla . I'm just frustrated to no end . Thank you so much from the bottom my heart for being here for me ! I have been worried about this for over year now ! Big hugs to you as well .

Go to a breast dr and ask her to biospy it because it is verypainful and bothersome. Push even if they dont agree. Get a referral to someone who will biospy it. If you make it a point to your dr they may. My PS wouldn't biospy it, they do plastic surgery. I ask my oncologist and he said he had one orientation t who he treated for lymphoma because of implants. It is supposedly a different lymphoma than mine. Large Cell. You are in my thoughts and prayers. I had been worried for almost 2years and no ine beard my voice. I had Togo back to my breast dr and say take this out because it bothers me. She missed it for almost 2 years. I had one pop up on my neck and they said oh you are fine. It was cancer all along. You are so welcome! I want you to be sure. Big hugs. Stand up for yourself and dont take no for an answer. Just act like it is bother you and you want it out. Its legitimate because you have had them awhile. Big hugs! Keep me posted. I have to do chemo instead of the immunotherapy because of insurance BS but I start Friday
October 10, 2015
You're in my prayers ! I'm going to I'm in a fight and when I complain until they do a biopsy on me ! I'm sorry to hear that you have to go through chemo instead of Immunotherapy . Medical insurance , Sometimes it's just a joke . We will see what my medical covers . Big hugs! I'll let you know how everything goes :-)
October 10, 2015
Thank you! Yes fight! There is something called cancer insurance you can purchase, just a thought. Ironically enough my job gad a guy come by before I knew and offered it. I turned it down. Little did I know. Medical insurance is a stinking joke. They f ont want to cure you first, just make money. I have researched alot about my diagnosis so any questions let me know. I am not happy about chemo. That sucks. Thanks, keep me updated. I have you and your family in my prayers. Big hugs! I poo ray you are cancer free. Love
October 10, 2015
You're right the Health insurance is a joke all as it is as them wanting to make money the problem is is it's really hard because I don't trust chemo either ! I see what they're doing to my mom and it's just crazy ! Thank you you are so sweet ! You're definitely in my family prayers as well ! :-)

Hi sweetie !
How are you feeling? I know you said you were starting your chemo on the 13th so I just wanted to see how everything was going . You're always on my mind and in my prayers ! I went to another primary doctor today and he sending me over to a specialist to do a diagnostic mammogram and ultrasound, my appointment is on 22 October I'm going to push for them to do a biopsy on one of my lymph nodes while I'm there . I just wanted to give you an update. I'm trying to be very proactive and move very quickly , so if it is cancer I can start treatment right away.
I am trying to stay positive. Sending loving and healing vibes your way :-) xoxoxo

Thank you so much! I am happy to hear you are getting this done. The earlier the diagnosis the better. Today has been rough with stomach cramping but I had my 2 nd day of round one yesterday. I meant the 14th if I said the 13th. 2 days if chemo and rituximab which are monicinal antibodies. Besides today it hasn't been too bad. Thank you for checking on me. Definitely get them to biospy and I pray it is fine. Thank you for your support! It means alot. Xoxo

Hello ! I've been thinking of you often! How have you been?
I went for a diagnostic monogram and another unltra sound on the 22nd of December! Of course they tell me everything is within normal limits , and they will not do a biopsy on my lmyph node , because the doctors do feel I need one ! I'm going to take your advice and tell them its bothering me so they will have to investigate further and do a biopsy! I am so scared .. But I know I need to find out and be firm on the doctors , this is my life we are talking about .. I truly want to believe the doctors of what they are telling me ! But I want to know for sure ! Oh how I wish I would have never put these toxic bags in my body in the first place ! :(
Sending love and healing thoughts your way ! Big hugs

Hey, I cant remember if I told everyone but I am stage IV non hodgkins lymphoma. It was in my bone marrow. I have had good and bad days. I am waiting for treatment. Thank all of you for your support and kind words of inspiration. I wanted to post a pic of my breast. It is about 5 months now. I have lost weight so it may have effected their appearance. I am definitely not worried about that right now. I want everyone to know how grateful I am to all of you. Love

you look better than ever. They don't look smaller. Maybe you lost weight everywhere but your chest, lucky girl. I believe the fda made a connection with lymphoma and implants. A very slight correlation, but I believe enough to publish the info. You should google it to make sure I'm correct or perhaps you already knew this. Anyways, I pray that you improve. How are you feeling?
September 25, 2015
Thank you. I ask my dr and its a different lymphoma then mine or so they say. There is a connection so I wouldn't doubt it contributed. I feel tired and emotionally stressed but that is normal. Thank you so very much for the compliments. I am so healthy otherwise it definitely makes me wonder. Thank you for the prayers. Xoxo
September 26, 2015

I pray you get stronger and beat this sickness!!!!!!! xoxo we all are rooting for you!!!!!!!

I have been dealing with mu new diagnosis and I have had a bone marrow biospy this w eekn I have seen 2 oncologist so my plate has been full. I am having my upset and downs which are normal. It was hard to accept at first. I still sometimes think, how in the world did this happen. The doctors said I didn't do anything to cause it. Its random but I have been researching until I feel like mybead will fall off :-/ I am try to be positive and in time I am sure I will. Thank everyone for their support and prayers. Love

I don't know anything about the cancer you have but I have seen some pretty amazing things on youtube about beating cancer naturally with things a simple as baking soda and such, so maybe check that out on youtube! I hope you kick cancer's ass and get better soon!!!! Sending you a big hug xo

No weapon formed against you shall prosper!! That cancer does not belong to you. satan is a liar. I deny the right for cancer to be in that Blood bought body. Jesus took care of this over 2000 years ago and brought Victory for You on the Cross. He died and rose again for your Victory. Triumphing over the enemy. Openly defeating him in every area. I plead the Blood of Jesus for every area of your life. We are created in God's image. He spoke and created. We speak and create. I speak life and life abundantly for you my sister. Put the Word of God on that stinking devil and he will have to flee!! You are the Healed
September 14, 2015
Amen!!!!!! Thank you, you made me smile. I appreciate and needed that! You are awesome! God is my healer, for sure. I can feel Gods spirit in your words.
I am NOT sayng that your illness is definitely connected to the implants, but it may be worthwhile at least looking into it. I have no idea how much your illness is impacting your life. If its not impacting it that much, then maybe its not worthwhile to go through the trouble of anything else. But if it is, I would suggest looking into the possibilities I mentioned. Take care and I'll keep you in my prayers.
