Tune Into Your Body: How Self Exams Saved My Life Twice! FITBODY Podcast Episode 22

Tune Into Your Body: How Self Exams Saved My Life Twice! FITBODY Podcast Episode 22 In today's episode, I want to share a deeply personal journey with you. I've faced breast cancer twice in 3 years, and I genuinely believe that my commitment to monthly self breast examinations played a pivotal role in detecting it early. I'll guide you through the exact techniques I use for self-exams, ensuring you're equipped with the knowledge to notice any changes in your body. While self-exams are incredibly important, they're a complement to regular mammograms, not a replacement. I have had the benefit of multiple detection techniques - self breast examinations, doctor assisted exams, diagnostic mammograms, breast ultrasounds, and breast MRI's. WIth my first breast cancer diagnosis, I opted for breast conserving therapy with a lumpectomy and radiation followed by hormone therapy. With my second primary breast cancer diagnosis, I choose a skin and nipple sparing mastectomy with tissue expander placement. Join me today as we dive deep into the importance of early detection, and how staying in tune with your body can be a game-changer. Let's empower ourselves and potentially save lives together.
