Questions

DOES A MAMMOGRAPHY HURT?
It isn't the most comfortable experience -
however it doesn't last long - the 'ouch'
factor is brief and it is necessary.

HOW CAN A SUPPORT GROUP HELP ME?
Studies show that positive support groups are beneficial to women who have experienced
cancer. Within the support group you'll meet
others who have had similar experiences to you
and can share your concerns. This will help you
to cope with the situation - during and after treatment.

I'M UNDER 40 YEARS OF AGE - IS IT
NECESSARY FOR ME TO EXAMINE MYSELF?
Yes - breast awareness is vital at any age.

IS BREAST CARE HEREDITARY?
In a small number of cases - yes. If several
members of your family have had cancer and
you are concerned, seek the advise of your Doctor.

ARE ALL LUMPS CANCEROUS?
No but they do need investigating sooner
rather than later!

DO I NEED RADIOTHERAPY AND CHEMOTHERAPY?
Not necessarily - each cancer diagnosis is different - your specialist will advise you of the treatment that
they recommend.
