I'm really worried about my wife. She's 23 and has been dealing with fibroadenoma for about 4 years now. There's one in her right breast that's around 3 cm, and it's causing her a lot of fear. We're really hoping to find a way to treat it without surgery. Any advice?

I'm 32 and have a cyst in my left breast. After seeing a doctor, they said it's fibroadenosis and mentioned surgery as a treatment. I'm really unsure about having surgery. Are there other options besides surgery that I could consider? And if I do go through with surgery, what kind of impact might it have on me? I'm a bit worried about these next steps.

Fibroadenosis is a benign condition, and in many cases, surgery may not be necessary. Non-surgical treatments, such as monitoring, medications for pain relief, or changes in lifestyle, are options to manage the condition. If surgery is recommended, it is generally safe, but its important to discuss any potential risks or concerns with your doctor for personalized advice.

my dad has stage 4 adenocarcinoma colon cancer and is currently doing chemo - i'm wondering about surgery costs and whether surgery would actually be a good option for him at this stage

Stage 4 colon cancer patients may undergo surgery for obstruction or metastasis resection. Costs vary by hospital. Benefit depends on performance status and response to chemo.

My mom was diagnosed with colon cancer and had a laparoscopic low anterior resection surgery. The biopsy shows tumor deposits one in number but no lymph nodes involved out of 16 examined. The tumor is moderately differentiated adenocarcinoma, pT3 pN1c. Since there's a tumor deposit but no lymph node involvement, does she still need chemo?

oncologist opinion is advised.
