Case Description

I had a mammogram in April 2008.My physician told me results were fine... nothing to worry about.In May of this year I noticed my right breast was misshapen,went for another mammogram and found out it was BREAST CANCER!Recently went for Dr\'s appt and thats when he told me I\'d had fibroids showing in 2008.I checked online to see if having fibroids could lead to breast cancer and,yes,the site I was on said it most definitely could happen.So... after is said and done what with all the tests,
bloodwork,having a radical mastectomy and now chemotherapy not to mention all the EMOTIONAL TURMOIL,FEAR AND DISTRESS this has caused me for months now I feel I\'ve been supremely and undeniably treated with NEGLECT by someone whom I thought I could trust with my life!!!I\'m only 48 yrs old with grandchildren that I may not live to see as adults because of this error in my Dr\'s judgement by not telling me something that could have prevented all that I\'ve gone through and all that I\'ll be going through in whatever future I have left!!!
