yeah, I was shocked to get BC because I had no contributing factors...never smoked, no family history of any cancer, and never took hormone replacement therapy after menopause...go figure...there's alot of causes out there for cancer (environment, foods, exposures, etc) that we shouldn't be complacent just because no family history...thus everyone should screen for cancer if possible...I have been reading that some studies are beginning on the connection between radioactive iodine treatment for thyroid disease and the development of BC...since I had that treatment 20 yrs ago I figure that's how I got cancer...ya never know
