I WAS RECENTLY TOLD THAT I HAVE LESIONS IN MY LEFT BREAST, SHOULD I BE WORRIED

Hi Pat: I'd say you should be concerned, though not worried. Worry doesn't accomplish anything, while concern reminds you to responsibly do what you need to do to take care of your health. "Lesion" can be any number of things; one of them (but just one of many) is breast cancer. Luckily, 85% of suspicious lumps, lesions, etc. that are biopsied are benign; so the odds are with you. Be sure to follow up with any recommended tests — and good luck to you. PJH
