Sweet Lumps: My breast cancer scare and copper IUD removal

from The Chelsea Channel

Two weeks ago, I discovered a lump that felt different from the others. The anxiety of waiting for tests and imaging was overwhelming.Through this experience, I learned the importance of knowing my body. I was once indifferent about health, but my son's reaction to food dyes opened my eyes. We cleaned up our diet, and the results were life-changing! No more skin issues, and our overall health improved. I thought I was doing everything RIGHT...espically about my choice in the copper iud. Nonhormonal birthcontol. Cant get any more natural then that...so I thought. After years of side effects finally coming to ahead, I decided to remove it.....Then the lump showed up. How could this lump appear? What did I do wrong? Then the loss of sleep began. Staying up all hours of the night leading up to my diagnostic appointment, going down every rabbit hole in existence. The feeling like I had zero control over my body is something I still CLEARLY need to work on. The lump was diagnosed BENIGN. I am very relived. However, where I am going from here is still unknown territory. I was told "these are your breasts now..." "this is your baseline." Now I feel so lost in the WHY and HOW. Remember, your health is your wealth. Bless everyone in the whole world who is or has gone through BC. My test results are common but for some women, and men, that is not the answer they receive.
