Throwback: The evolution of treatment methodologies over the decades in breast cancer care
Breast cancer is the most common form of cancer among women across the world, including India. In fact, breast cancer accounts for one-third of all the cancers that affect women in the country. According to an ICMR study, the current age-standardised rate of breast cancer is approximately 25.8 per one lakh women and is expected to rise to 35 per one lakh women by 2026. It is the most common invasive cancer in women and the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths after lung cancer. Breast cancer forms in the lobules or ducts of the breast. It can also occur in the fatty tissue or the fibrous connective tissue within the breast. The cancer can spread outside the breast through blood and lymph vessels. Breast cancer can be categorised as ‘invasive’, ‘non-invasive’, or ‘in-situ’. While invasive breast cancer spreads from the breast ducts or glands to other parts of the body, non-invasive breast cancer does not spread from the original tissue.

I was hesitant about getting a Covid vaccine, until I got one
Several months ago my wife and I sat down after dinner to watch a movie. Suddenly, she couldn't breathe and her tongue was swollen. Within minutes her face was swollen and hives covered her body. We rushed to the emergency room where she was whisked away. She had an anaphylactic reaction, and had we pondered the idea of going to the ER much longer, she may have died. After copious amounts of testing by an allergy clinic, nothing conclusive was found. Doctors finally suggested that the flu vaccine she had a day earlier may have been the culprit. Despite having flu vaccines in prior years, they explained that every flu vaccine is different, full of various preservatives and ingredients to keep viral particles stable until they reach your muscle.
