Breast cancer is the commonest cancer among women in Sweden and the number is constantly growing. One lump or lump in or around the breast is the most common sign of cancer. Early detection increases the possibility of curing the disease. Surgery combined with radiotherapy is a method for treating breast cancer.
Breast cancer usually begins with a tumor develops in one breast. It can feel like a lump. Certain types of breast cancer can spread and form metastases, ie metastases in other parts of the body.

Many women with breast cancer will be healthy.

The risk of developing breast cancer increases with age. The disease is uncommon before age 40. Breast cancer can be hereditary, but in most cases is not known why.

Breast cancer is also available in men, most of those affected are 60-70 years of age or older. Male breast cancer is extremely rare and represent less than one percent of breast cancers.
Two types of breast cancer

There are two types of breast cancer:
Carcinoma
Cancer tumors occur most often in the breast duct and in the internal, dairy section. Cancers arising in these parts of the breast are called carcinomas. Carcinoma may gradually spread to other parts of the body. This is the most common form of breast cancer.
Sarcoma

Another type of breast cancer, sarcoma, which arises in the breast supporting tissue. It can spread via the bloodstream to the body’s other organs. One percent of breast cancer cases are sarcomas, carcinomas are the rest.

Symptoms
The most common sign of breast cancer is the formation of a bump or lump in or around the breast, for example, in the armpit. Changes in breast shape and appearance, or a withdrawal of the skin on the chest in a limited area may also occur. The nipple can be drawn inwards or otherwise altered. Bloody discharge from the nipple may also be an early symptom.

Many breast cancers are detected in a mammography. Through regular surveys can detect breast cancer at an early stage.
Prevention

The possibility of curing breast cancer is greater the earlier the diagnosis is made. It is therefore very important that you each month examines your breasts for lumps, nodules or other changes. The best way to examine your breasts is to lather them with circular movements gently feel through the glandular tissue with your fingers. It is easiest to find any changes if you stretch the arm at the side to investigate.

By examining your breasts regularly teaches you to know them and can easily detect any changes.

Survey
To see if you have breast cancer are multiple investigations, including mammography and examination of cell samples from the tumor. If a lump or bump is detected at mammography are sometimes tissue specimens by puncture with a needle.

Physicians need to know what kind of tumor it is, how big it is and how it grows to be able to choose treatment. A tissue sample (biopsy) taken from the tumor to find out what kind of tumor this is. In the treatment of breast cancer is always sample from the lymph nodes in the armpit. If the tumor cells spread to the lymph nodes influences the choice of treatment.

Treatment
In breast cancer surgery often the only part of the breast where the tumor is located. This method is used if the tumor is not larger than 3-4 centimeters in diameter. Intervention is usually combined with radiotherapy for the portion of the breast that remains.

The entire breast surgically removed if the tumor is too large or if there are tumors in several parts of the breast. If the tumor in the breast is large or if the tumor cells spread to the lymph nodes is often cytotoxic (chemotherapy) for three to four months before surgery is done.

Sometimes, breast surgery, even if it is a benign tumor. When a minor surgery locally in the chest – it does not remove the entire breast. That it operates off a benign lump may be due to mammograms and cell samples are not completely safe demonstrated that cells of the tuber is healthy. When operating in order to be on the safe side. It also happens to be operating out benign nodules of a type which, over time, tend to grow bigger, to avoid future uncertainty and new samples. A third reason to remove a benign lump, the patient is restless and myself wish to remove it.

All women who undergo breast surgery in which the entire breast is removed may be able to choose an external prosthesis or a new breast in surgical means. There are several different methods to reconstruct the breast, which can sometimes be directly associated with the first operation. Breast surgeon will then work with a plastic surgeon for the bypass.

Previously, approximately one in ten women who had surgery for breast cancer after surgery known as lymphedema in the operated side arm. In lymphedema, it is important that treatment be provided with compression and massage by specially trained physical therapist. In this way, the symptoms of swelling usually be contained in an effective manner.

With the surgical techniques currently used are only one or two lymph node from his armpit. If the gland is healthy is the prejudice to the armpit so small that the risk of lymphedema is insignificant. If the lymph node analysis, however turns out to be affected by cancer will be interference in the armpit of the same type as before, that is, removing a greater number of lymph nodes.

Aftercare
After the operation is often needed medical radiation or chemotherapy (chemotherapy), antibodies or hormonal drugs to reduce the risk that the tumor comes back. Often a combination of several different kinds of treatment. The risk of relapse is greatest during the first few years. After surgery and any other treatment is therefore recommended that women who have had breast cancer that regularly make visits and mammograms.

How to remove the remnants of cancer cells? Cancer treatment is usually still have cancer cells in the body that are not killed. Now a research to find vaccines for cancer treatment. Found that the vaccine is a medicine that can eliminate the remnants of cancer cells, especially in patients with CML (Chronic myeloid Leukemia)

This vaccine can help some patients with CML who took the drug Gleevec. But the researchers revealed that the results of this research is still tentative or not yet reached the final.

This research is funded by the National Institutes of Health and led by Dr. Hyam Levitsky, a professor yaiu oncology, medicine and urology from the Johns Hopkins Kimmel Cancer Center in Baltimore, Maryland. The results of this research has appeared in the journal Clinical Cancer Research.

Gleevec drug marketed by Novartis as Gleevec in the U.S. and Glivec in Europe and Australia, is one of the targeted cancer drugs successfully treat patients with CML.

These drugs are destroying most of the cancer cells, but for certain patients the cancer cells can still be detected by using a sensitive molecular test. The remaining cancer cells can cause the growth of the cancer returning.

Researchers explain the majority of patients with CML in the Gleevec should consume most of his life, although approximately 90 percent of patients get relief. But about 10-15 percent of patients can not tolerate for long-term use.

“Often patients with CML have blood cell count is low, fluid retention, significant nausea and other digestive problems,” said Dr B Douglas Smith of Johns Hopkins Kimmel Cancer Center, as quoted from Medicalnewstoday, Friday (8/1/2010).

Levitsky disclose this vaccine is made to shine CML cells that do not turn into cancer. After that change the genetic material of these cells to produce immune system stimulators known as GM-CSF (granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor) is a substance that can help make white blood cells a particular type.

These cells will also carry antigens that would destroy the CML cells are still circulating in the body. Researchers involving 19 CML patients who were given the vaccine. All patients measured by its level of CML cells and have been taking Gleevec for more than 12 months. Patients are given the vaccine with 4 times the chance of 10 shots in every opportunity.

Cells acquired the remaining cancer has decreased, ie 12 patients found to reach the lowest levels of the cancer cells remaining, and 7 other people is not detected at all remaining cancer cells in the body.

But the researchers realized that the study is still limited, such as the limited number of patients and the lack of comparison with other therapies.

Because it still needs further research to ensure that this vaccine can actually lower the cancer cells that remain. The test was conducted also showed side effects such as pain at the injection site, swelling, sometimes pain in the muscles and a mild fever.

Serious complications of diabetes include: myocardial infarction, visual impairment to blindness, stroke, amputations, kidney disease, etc.. We can reduce the risk of complications by 70% if one observed the rules of lifestyle changes: diet adapted physical activity, compliance, regular monitoring.

Realizing the serious challenges of this disease, one social group under the slogan “All united against Diabetes” reaffirmed its commitment in the fight against diabetes by promoting knowledge about the detection and management of care for  people with diabetes to the general public.

Soft drinks including diet soda decreased absorption of calcium in the bloodstream and therefore can be said that the absorption of calcium and diet soda are closely interrelated, but in the negative sense.

Diet soda and other drinks contain phosphoric acid which interferes with calcium absorption and, consequently, most of the calcium we get from the diet goes out through urine. People used to drink soda on a regular basis are at high risk of fracture and bone weakening.

Phosphorus is an important constituent of bone calcium than others. It is also necessary for proper absorption of calcium from the stomach into the bloodstream, but abnormally high levels of phosphorus in the blood are dangerous to health. We should all try to get the maximum amounts of all minerals from a well-balanced, healthy diet.

The relationship of calcium absorption and diet soda can be set to consume no more than 1 can of soda every day. And if they are addicted to diet soda and then try to drink water, milk, orange juice, other fruit juices and soy beverages instead of diet soda. Besides these, do not forget to add a rich source of calcium to your diet such as fish, shellfish, boiled bone soup, molasses and kale.

It is also recommended by doctors to consume calcium and vitamin D supplements on a daily basis. These supplements are particularly useful for women over age 40 who are at high risk of developing osteoporosis and other degenerative diseases. Similarly, pregnant women are in need of high calcium diet and calcium and multi-vitamin tablets.

Try to find the highest quality supplements available there. Carefully read the contents of a supplement product before starting your course. You can develop an infection or allergy reaction to a particular ingredient. Although these supplements are completely made with pure substances, people with health internal weakness often experience constipation, diarrhea, stomach cramps and some infections.

Calcium absorption is also affected by a diet rich in dietary protein from animal sources. Avoid caffeine, too much sugar and salt and artificially flavored food all you can. If you can, try to drink at least 1 cup of whole milk a day. Milk contains many enzymes and nutrients, which aid in calcium absorption and calcium makes up our bones and teeth.
