Hi Anne:
I had my first Kidney transplant at age 16 which lasted over 34 years; I have been very blessed. My husband gave me a kidney on 2-14-07 and I have been well, mainly skins cancers only. I get my mammogram every year. This year my Gyn found a lump in my left breast and of course I'm worried since we do have an increased cancer risk with our immunosuppresives we take. Can't get in for Mammo until 9/28 but I am on the cancelation list. Do you think I should try and get it ASAP and I would like your honest answer on what you think my chances are for this lump to be cancersous. I feel it may be since it is tender and irregularly shaped. Also it is not deep within the breast tissue.
Thank you on whatever you can share with me and your story is incredible as I can relate.
