乳がん検診を6年ぶりに受けて参りました。
I had mammography after 6 yrs. finally.
6年前の検診でない胸を挟んで「シラミつぶし！！」という感じに縦から横からと潰され、何度もやり直しさせられ、痛さに冷や汗かきながら泣いて、2度とマンモグラフィーは受けない！と心に誓ったのでした。
When I had mammography 6years ago, they pulled my breast which i don't have, and pushed so hard from the side and above, they told me to re-do it again and i was sweating and crying and I swore myself never do mammography again!
しかし、最近、腎機能の検診で病院へ行った時に「右胸に小さな影があるので、一応乳がんの検診も受けておいて下さいね」と言われました。
But when I went to the hospital again to check my kidney function recently, I was told by doctor to have mammography because there's some shadow on my right breast.
腎臓がんを経験してリスクが高い私は「もう逃げられないな」と思いながら帰宅。
Since I experienced rcc and I am on higher risk, I thought "oh, I can't escape." and went home.
帰宅途中の電車の中で「乳がん検診」という広告が目に飛び込んで来まして、よく見ると、乳腺や乳がん専門のクリニック。
On the way home on the train, I found ad saying "BREAST CANCER TEST", and it was an ad of clinic specialized in breast.
余りにタイムリーだったので、人目も気にせず広告を携帯で撮りました。
I thought it was right on time so, I photographed the ad by my mobile phone.
評判が良いクリニックのようだったので、これは行くしかないと決意。
It seemed like a clinic with good reputation so, I decided to go.
クリニックへ電話をすると、とても対応が丁寧で、マンモグラフィーに関しても「技術を持った技師がおりますから」との自信を感じるご回答。
When I called the clinic, they were so nice and when I asked about mammography's pain, they said "We have best technician." with pride.
痛くないことへの期待が次第に高まる。
I expected that it won't pain that much.
今日、ドキドキしながらクリニックへ行った。
Today, I went to clinic with heartbeat.
とても綺麗なクリニックで、まずは保険証の提示とお支払い。
It was neat clinic, and I paid first with showing my insurance card.
検査代の一部(500円)をピンクリボンキャンペーンへと寄付出来る素敵なシステム。
They had nice system that you get discount by donating 500yen to pink ribbon campaign.
そして、着替えてから質問事項に記入した問診票を見て先生とお話。
And You change clothes and talk with doctor by questions I filled on paper.
私は、
I have...
1.親族に乳がんの人が居る
1.family who was a breast cancer
2.出産経験がない
2.No experience of delivering birth
3.過去に乳腺種の疑いあり
3. doubt of having fibroadenoma in a past
3項目揃うと乳がんのリスクは高いですよと言われた。
I was told the risk of breast cancer is high because I had 3.
そこで腹を括りました。右胸失ってもいいや〜！と。
And I thought, Well, I can lose my right breast!
どうせ最初から胸ないし。。。。。
I don't have breast from first anyway...
次は超音波。かなり真剣に見て下さっている。
Next was ultrasound. He was checking it so seriously.
思えば昨年の今頃。超音波で癌が発見されたのは。
Thinking back, It was the last year when my rcc was found by ultrasound.
私「見つかれば早期発見ですよね？」
I asked "If it's found, it's early and good right?"
先生「そんなことはないよ。」
Doctor said "I wouldn't think so."
どうやら、良性の腫瘍を放置したが為に悪性に変わって手遅れなケースは多いようだ。
It seems like there are many cases that you never check good tumor and it turns out to be bad and it's too late.
そしてマンモグラフィーが以前に比べて痛くなかったんです！感激しました。
And mammography wasn't as painful as before! I was impressed.
待合室では「乳がんになったら？」のような雑誌を読んで悪い結果に備え心の準備。
I was reading "If you become a breast cancer?" magazine to prepare for bad result.
もしかしたら、乳がんが先でリンパ転移で腎臓に癌が出来たかもしれないし。
My rcc might have come from lymph which was from breast cancer maybe...
そして名前が呼ばれた。先生「綺麗ですよ。何もないです。」
And my name was called. Doctor "It's clear. Nothing found."
どうやら乳腺種すらない様子。
Even no fibroadenoma seeemed to be found.
マクロビオティックの食事であった腫瘍が消えたのか？
I wonder if macrobiotic food made it disappear?
先生によると動物性食品の摂取を控えて消えることはあるそうです。
According to the doctor, Fibroadenoma can disappear by taking no animal fat.
帰りに言われました。「ちゃんと毎年、検診を受けに来て下さいよ！」
I was told before I leave,"Please make sure to check every year!"
あんなに痛くなくて早く終わるマンモグラフィーだったら受けます！受けます！
Yes!Yes! to mammography which didn't take time and wasn't painful!
If any of you had mammography at some hospital before and you never want to do it again, I would recommend this clinic.
