The Boobie Docs: The Girlfriend’s Guide to Breast Cancer, Breast Health, & Beyond

CANCER BESTIES WITH MISSI & ALICE 👯‍♀️


Listen Later

I am so excited to introduce you to my cancer besties, Missi and Alice, who turned their breast cancer journeys into purpose!

Cancer Besties is an incredible online toolbox that translates your imaging & lab reports into plain English, & also provides a list of follow-up questions to ask your provider. 🤯 (When I posted about it on @theboobiedocs, you all went crazy with good reason!) 

We talk about each of their breast cancer journeys & how this inspired them to create Cancer Besties. Missi was found to carry a BRCA 1 mutation and underwent a prophylactic bilateral mastectomy. She then helped her friend Alice, who was diagnosed with breast cancer after her first mammogram.

We cover a lot in this important conversation, including:

•What to expect for your mammogram & biopsy

•Understanding your imaging & biopsy results

•How to calculate your own breast cancer risk score using the Tyrer-Cuzick calculator 

•The real reason you can’t wear deodorant during a mammogram…

And so much more! 

I hope you love this conversation as much as we do.
