I find the release of the study on breast self-examination very distressing.1 In 1996 during breast self-examination I found a lump that was invasive ductal carcinoma. Breast self-examination saved my life. Wouldn't women have been better served if the money used for this study had been used for research instead of to study breast self-examination outside of North America? Why is there not a more concerted effort between Canada and the United States for joint research and treatment? Stop wasting money and find a cure. This disease is no fun and I don't want to die from it.
