Half a year ago I was diagnosed with breast cancer. It was mild and I'm almost done with radiation that followed chemo. I discussed it all on "the Ladies' room forum and not looking to discuss that here now. But something I heard was interesting and wondered if other people know about this.
Yesterday I took a survey at the cancer center (they paid me $25 for my time ). It was mainly about emotional issues and I told the tester that I'm probably throwing their statistics cause I've been sick with MS for 30 years and I wasn't suddenly not feeling 100% healthy (I haven't in years...). I've already learned to deal with everything (sort of)
So the tester told me that I was the 2nd lady that day that she interviewed who had breast cancer and MS. She said it's very common. I asked her if the MS drugs are what causes the breast cancer. She said No, it's an autoimmune disease and that's why your body can't fight other illnesses so well.
So what do you think? She also said MS and Breast cancer seem to be the "winning" combination.
