Women over 40 :)

Its so important to get checked! I'm still a couple of years off, but I'll be getting checked once I hit 30. My mum got breast cancer a couple of years ago in her mid 40's and also developed a very rare syndrome (paraneoplastic syndrome) as a result. We're not sure she'll ever recover and may be in a wheelchair for the rest of her life. As if getting cancer and having chemo and a mastectomy wasn't enough.

If you have a family history you can go earlier.

Sorry to hear about your mum
