So what New Year resolutions did you make this year? I am sure the gyms are quite busy with those who made the resolution to exercise more! Well, the gyms will be busy for a while and hopefully you will keep your resolutions because you know some of them are good for you!
I hope one of your resolutions is being proactive about your health and make sure you make taking care of your health a top priority.
Visiting your doctor and taking care of yourself is one of the best gifts you can do for yourself! We only have one life; this is not a dress rehearsal so it is up to you to take care of yourself!
Making sure I get my mammogram and a visit to the Risk and Prevention Clinic at Dana-Farber is a part of my regiment. I know when I am sitting waiting for my mammogram, I will usually have to be called back for them to take more images, but that is for my benefit and I don’t mind it!
In the past, I have had biopsies, core biopsies, aspirations, and now in addition I have a marker that was inserted where they aspirated a cyst.
Last December when I got the good news that my mammogram was fine and they will see me in a year, I got the news in the room named for my mother! Coincidence? I think not!
Here is to our good health! Take care of your health and remember breast cancer is just a women’s disease. Men do get breast cancer! For more information on Male Breast Cancer visit this site.
