    Oh No (Diagnosed): I knew before I was diagnosed that I had cancer. My left nipple started bleeding and left blood stains in my bra. One day in the shower I squeezed my nipple and blood shot everywhere. I knew right then. I made an emergent appointment with my doctor, (OB/GYN). They told me not to worry and this was normal. I asked for a mammogram, but had to wait 2 months. They took a sample of the blood from my nipple. They called me back and advised me it was normal. I then asked my primary care physician for a referral to a breast specialist and was seen and diagnosis confirmed. Had I not persued this matter, I truly believe I would not be here today. I was 33 years old and devastated.
