Re: Stillhere's poll question #6
Yes, I had bloody discharge and my nipple was extremely tender. The discharge was very sutle and spontaneous. My family physician did a blood test on the discharge. I was put on an antibiotic for staph infection. One week later, no improvement so I insisted on a mammogram and the rest is history. Within 5 weeks I went from stage 0 to stage IIB - 2.4 cm tumor and I never felt a lump.
