and that
I have been wanting to post this on my blog for quite sometime alredy.
But because, time always doesn’t permit,
Im actually posting it now during work.
Curik-curik time gitu.
Hur hur hur.
Please have a read my lovelies…
Excerpts of the article I took from a yahoo news article:
http://sg.news.yahoo.com/afp/20091008/tt
“WASHINGTON (AFP) –
– In a move to quicken detection for women at risk of breast cancer,
Canadian researchers said they had developed a hormone testing technique
that could eventually be used in a handheld device.
While the results are several years away from usage,
the new "lab-on-a-chip" technique developed at the
can analyze "tiny samples of blood and breast tissue
to identify women at risk of breast cancer
much more quickly than ever before,"
researchers said.”
Alhamdulillah.
May they invent the device soonest.
If you know me, you will understand why I am so passionate
about Breast Cancer Awareness.
Ladies,
I plead to you to have your check-up soon.
Do your breast self-examination monthly.
Any lumps or unusual feeling,
Please book an appointment to see the doctor
Or straight go for a mammogram.
Yeah, I know..
they recommend the mammogram
If you are 40years and above.
Yada yada yada…
But if you are like myself,
Who’s only 25 years old!
Who discovered lumps and cysts in both my breasts,
You will then know the importance of taking extra caution
and increasing awareness of breast cancer and early detection.
Actually I did blog about my biopsy in one of my entries.
The experience I went through with my boyfriend(who’s my hubby now)
Was indeed an eye-opener.
And I am so grateful,
That through those darkest days,
My love ones were there to give me the support
Which I needed ever so badly.
I went through it all..
Mammogram..
Having cysts removed from both my breasts
Trucut Biopsy
Having my lump tissues sent to the lab for tests
and
Fine Needle Aspiration.
Yeah..
So all these sound alien to you?
Well, don’t delay any longer yeah.
do read up on breast issues.
As weird as it sounds,
Get to know your breasts really well.
Go do a check-up if you see any abnormal changes.
Because after all,
you just never know.
can REALLY save your life.
xoxo,
wada.
