Hi everyone
It has been awhile since I posted on here.
October will be my 2 year mark of being recovered from GMI. I suffered for 14 months. I have been free of lumps and bumps and pain ever since.
I changed my diet to an anti-inflammatory diet, drank aloe vera. For 20 weeks I was on steroids, which relieved my pain for a few months, but once I was nearly done with my meds there were abscesses, but not as painful. I exercise now, kickboxing 3 times a week.
I did consider a mastectomy, but my doctor recommended against it and I am glad she did.
It may not seem like it now, but there is hope you will get through this. The average GMI case lasts 18 months. I researched anti-inflammatory diseases and treatments like mad. Working with my do for with the information I found helped.
Stay strong and positive.
