August 04, 2021 01:00 - 52 minutes - 36.4 MBBreast cancer in the South Asian community is a topic that doesn't get talked much about. My guest on today's show, Iyna Butt, knows all about this. You see, Iyna is a British South Asian woman, and when she was diagnosed with breast cancer, she soon realised that cancer in general, let alone breast cancer specifically, seems to be a subject that nobody talks about. Although no doubt the intentions were good, she was given all sorts of strange advice about what she needed to do to get rid...

S2 Ep37 Giving patients control of their breast cancer follow up - Kieva Noble
June 23, 2021 01:00 - 41 minutes - 28.7 MBLife is predictably unpredictable. Things happen randomly, unexpectedly, and out of our control. A breast cancer diagnosis for example is such a life event. Similarly, after breast cancer treatment has finished, you can't predict how you recover. You may find changes to the breast. You may be feeling certain symptoms that you are not particularly sure of. You may need support for your mental well-being. All of these don't happen on a particular day at a particular time. So, what happens wh...

February 24, 2021 02:00 - 26 minutes - 18.2 MBWhen you have a breast abnormality, you may need to have a biopsy. This is where a sample is taken from the breast and sent to the lab for analyses.

January 27, 2021 01:00 - 59 minutes - 40.8 MBWhat to eat and what not to eat? That is the question. There is so much information and mis-information out there surrounding nutrition and food.
