Anyone have any first hand experience with Breast Cancer?

Like....is it suppose to hurt when you press on the lump?

I don't tihnk most people here have little to no experience with breasts alone, much less breast cancer.
If you're worried, I'd recommend seeing a doc immediately and google around for common breast cancer symptoms.

Maybe someone they've known had it?

How much you think it will cost to check? I don't have insurance or anything.

I'm not going to play doctor on ATOT but as far as experience is concerned, my wife died of breast cancer in August of 1988. She was 46.

Try a walk-in clinic. In my experiences, they typically charge less for their services and cater to those w/o insurance.

Breast exam A lot of good info in there on how to do a breast self exam and what kind of things to look for. Most important when in doubt see the Doctor. Most likely It is just a Cyst and Cysts can be very painful when you put pressure on them. Still It is best to see the Doctor if there is any doubt at all.
