My journey into hell began when I had my mammogram and it revealed a lump that couldn't be felt, I was soon scheduled for a ultrasound guided core biopsy, which revealed I had Breast Cancer at 41 years old. I received those results on April 18, 2008, my life as I knew it would never be the same again. I had a lumpectomy on May 29, 2008 and they found DCIS and IDC Breast Cancer, they were able to get all the cancer and I have clear margins, but since I have invasive cancer the next step was to have a sentinel node biopsy, I just had that done on July 10, 2008 and I have clear nodes...Thank GOD all the prayers were answered. I don't know what my future holds, but I do know that GOD made it safe for me to take the next steps. I am awaiting the start of radiation and possible tamoxofin therapy for 5 years. I pray every single day that I don't have to go through this ever again, that the cancer stays gone and it doesn't re-appear anywhere else. My best friend (or so I thought) walked out on me when I needed her the most...its difficult to handle but in the long run I am not losing anything...I am gaining more friends here on DS.
People, making new friends, my wonderful family, playing online games, sewing, cleaning my new house, just being at home with my 4 legged babies.

Just recently diagnosed with high grade Ductal Carcinoma in Situ in my right breast..
From a little girl to adulthood I have struggled with chronic depression, its a part of me and sometimes its tolerable, sometimes its not.
Was diagnosed 15 yrs ago, I went into deep denial, and didn't get it under control until now, doing well with it.
Had excerise induced asthma in high school and it developed into full asthma by the time I was an adult.
Got in with the wrong crowd and got addicted to cocaine, have been drug free for 21 years and counting!
Chronic pain for about 20 years started when I was thrown off of my horse and broke my tailbone, never got better.
Had sexual pain and found it to be endo, had an experiemental treatment and it went away and has never came back.
Found out years later that my infertility problems are caused by a gene mutation.
I had 4, gave up and decided it just wasn't meant to be and I am fine with my decision years later now that I know I have a gene mutation that prevented me from having a baby.
I was diganosed with vascular migraines, they come and go without warning.
Reflux, acid indigestion, gas, cramps, you name it I have had it. Really the only thing that works the best for me is to really pay attention to what I put in my mouth.
Had my gallbladder removed, pain is gone.
The almighty OUCH!
It all depends on the day. Sometimes its so bad I can't get all the gas out.
I have had 2 blood clots, the second 4 1/2 inches in size and went above the knee.
Arthritis of the spine from a previous injury.
It comes and goes for me.
I was diagnosed with this a few years ago and it has since gotten worst, I am going to see a rehab for some pain relief.
I have been having unexplained pain for 7 years, I was just diagnosed with fibro and my doctor wants me to try lyrica.
Started with puberty and still have it, nothing helps!
Raped when I was a little girl, and again when I was an adult. Its a difficult thing to deal with, but I am stronger because of much healing and counseling.
OMG OUCH...there is NO pain in this world as awful as sciatica...
