My suggestion for what it's worth...
I don't know if I mentioned in previous posts that I was between mammograms when I discovered the breast cancer lump.
I have been using a bath louffa for a few years so had not actually "touched" skin to skin and done the soapy breast examination. When I did put aside the louffa, the lump was very obvious.
Another recently diagnosed friend who I spoke to this week, said she had a similar experience. She dropped her louffa on the shower floor and couldn't be bothered picking it up. She lathered up and found her lump as well.
My suggestion is - put aside the louffa, facecloth, whatever you use and once a month, lather up and examine your breasts, especially between mammograms.
And guys, if you are reading this...do I have to spell it out!
