I'm really worried because my wife has been getting this pain in her breast, more often on the left side. What kind of specialist should we see about this?

I'm sorry to hear about your wife's discomfort. It's best to consult a breast specialist or a general surgeon to evaluate the pain. They can assess her symptoms, conduct necessary tests, and guide her further.

My mom had breast conservation surgery and just got her biopsy report but still waiting for ER PR results. The staging says T1N1aMx and mentions metastasis couldn't be determined - does this mean they don't have enough data or are unsure? Also, I read stage IIA cancers are nonmetastatic, so why does it say Mx then? What does this report mean and what should we do next?

I'm a bit worried about my lymph nodes. About five months ago, a CT scan showed my lymph node was 16mm, and I had another scan today showing it's down to 8mm. I'm seeing Dr. Ujjwal Parikh at Sir Ganga Ram Hospital, and I'm feeling better, but I'd love to get some extra advice to be sure everything's okay. What do you think about these changes, and should I be concerned about anything?

What are the different cancer treatment options available and how effective is each one? I'm curious if there are alternatives to chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and surgery that might work better or have fewer side effects

Cancer treatment options include surgery, radiation, chemotherapy, targeted therapy, immunotherapy, hormone therapy, stem cell transplant, and more. Each treatment's effectiveness varies depending on the cancer type, stage, and individual patient factors. While chemotherapy, radiation, and surgery remain common, newer approaches like immunotherapy and targeted therapy are showing promise with potentially fewer side effects for some patients.
