THEIR STORIES #19 - Allyson's Story
Before Allyson found her cancer, she was actually getting regular mammograms for four years. However her cancer was found because she felt a pain in her breast, right where her underwire bra fit, and knew that it wasn’t right. Her doctor swore it was nothing, most likely due to the fact that she was getting those regular mammograms. But she was diagnosed with DCIS. She was that RARE form of DCIS. While DCIS is now found far more frequently because of mammograms, hers wasn’t found by mammogram, but found by that pain. Correction – it was found by her listening to her body, and trusting her instincts.
