Do you want to know what the latest updates in #breastcancer treatment are?
Watch this live chat, where I get to chat with the inspirational Liz O’Riordan, who is a UK breast surgeon turned breast cancer patient. We talk about:
✨giving Herceptin treatment to metastatic patients who were low HER2 (prev thought of as HER2-) who gained 10 months
✨latest guidelines for managing axillary lymph nodes
✨mastectomy closure and reconstruction
✨how men should be offered reconstruction as well
Let us know if this was helpful, and if you’d like us to do another one! #breastcancer #breastoncology #herceptin #HER2 #Axilla #axillarynodes #sentinelnodebiopsy #axillaryclearance #ALNC #livewithdrliz #drlizexplains #breast #breastsurgeon #BCSM #BCCWW #BRCA #BRCA1 #BRCA2 #PALB2 #mammogram #mammo #womenshealth #breastcancerawareness #breasthealth #lumpectomy #mastectomy #breastcancersurvivor #breastcancersucks #breastcancerfighter #savethetatas #breastcancersurvivor #breastcancerwarrior #austin #austintexas #ATX #austintx #breastteamever #ilooklikeasurgeon #ladydoc
I get by with a little help from my friends!!
To a breast surgeon, there’s no better buddy than her trusty breast radiologist. These docs do such a hard job for all of us, and they make it look so easy. Dr. Briscoe has been my colleague and friend for many years, and it’s a privilege to be under her care 🥰

MY FIRST MAMMOGRAM!!!!
Let me tell you - this didn’t hurt at all. In fact, the vertical squeeze (MLO) was only slightly uncomfortable and the horizontal squeeze (CC) was totally comfortable. My tech helped me get into the right position for an optimal view, and she even re-positioned me when she saw a skin fold.
Thank you Baptist!!!!!

The girls found two pairs of Tweezermans and decided to start using them to pick at my seams. But the older one is holding her pickups correctly. So…win? 😅🤷🏽♀️😷👩🏽⚕️🩺

A CONVERSATION WITH TWO BREASTS: a sketch 😎
A beloved patient of mine was having a party to say farewell to her breasts, and her husband @joshuahavoc reached out and asked me to say something special. This is what I came up with 🤣
Thank you to @bonnyjo for entrusting me with your care!! We love you 😍

WHAT IF BREAST CANCER HAPPENS WHILE I’M PREGNANT?
Mammography is safe and appropriate to do in both pregnant and lactating patients…so why is there so much hesitation? Here, Austin Cancer Centers patient Yvonne Gonzales shares her story of being diagnosed in pregnancy, and advocating for her own health.

In fairness, it’s definitely harder to see things in hormonally active breast tissue. But that’s not a reason to delay. It’s especially disturbing to see women, including female physicians, get told to skip something as important as *cancer screening* because it’s inconvenient or a little harder to do. @radiologyacr has very helpfully published guidelines here, which you can print and bring with you to your mammo appt: https://acsearch.acr.org/docs/3102382/Narrative/
So if you are due for your mammogram, if you’re thirty five and over and you feel a mass, if you have that feeling in your gut that something isn’t right…trust it. Get a mammogram to go with your ultrasound.
Special shoutout to my exceptional partner in crime Dr. Aneesha Hossain (@doctorknowsbreast) and @kxan_news for sharing this remarkable story!!

Kicking off my July 4th… in bed 😎
Bring a part of this country can be hard at times. There’s never a moment where we aren’t struggling with its ideals. Our lack of shared opinions. Even in a pandemic, we don’t feel like a team, and that’s exhausting.
But being American actually supersedes all that. It’s about potential. Opportunity is so hard to come by, but it is there, and I feel so lucky I get to take part in it.
Video of me and my mixed race kids, who are bursting at the seams with potential, for attention 🥰
