| 252. What is Energy Medicine with Inflammatory Breast Cancer Survivor Dianne Faure | 08 Dec 2024 | 00:41:48 | |
Love the episode? Send us a text! In this episode of Breast Cancer Conversations, I had the pleasure of speaking with Dianne Faure, an attorney, author, teacher, advanced Eden energy medicine practitioner, and massage therapist. Dianne shared her incredible journey of using energy medicine to manage and overcome various health issues, including her own diagnosis with inflammatory breast cancer. Dianne's background is impressive. She has resolved multiple health issues such as chronic pain, allergies, rheumatoid arthritis, skin lupus, and connective tissue disease through the Eden Method. In April 2021, Dianne was diagnosed with inflammatory breast cancer, a rare and aggressive form of the disease. She decided to document her experience and incorporate her energy medicine tools to manage the treatment and its side effects. This journey led her to publish her memoir and self-help book, "Cancer and Energy Medicine, A Healing Journey," in 2024. During our conversation, Dianne explained the broad umbrella of energy medicine, which includes acupuncture, traditional Chinese medicine, yoga, and Reiki. She delved into her personal experience with breast cancer, from the initial diagnosis to the various treatments she underwent, including chemotherapy, mastectomy, and radiation. Dianne also shared how she used energy medicine to navigate the side effects of chemotherapy and other treatments. She emphasized the importance of self-advocacy and understanding one's body, especially when dealing with a complex and often misunderstood condition like inflammatory breast cancer. We discussed the concept of energy medicine in detail, including the nine energy systems, such as meridians, auras, and chakras. Dianne provided insights into how she assesses and balances these energy systems in her clients using techniques like energy testing and muscle testing. Dianne's book is a valuable resource for cancer patients, survivors, and their loved ones. It offers practical tools and techniques to manage the physical and emotional challenges of cancer treatment. The book is available on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and other major retailers. This episode is a treasure trove of information for anyone interested in complementary approaches to cancer treatment and overall well-being. Dianne's story is a testament to the power of energy medicine and the importance of taking an active role in one's healing journey.

Wisenberg, a self-described "one-breasted feminist" and author of "The Adventures of Cancer Bitch." S.L. shared her journey of being diagnosed with stage 2A breast cancer in 2007, undergoing a mastectomy and chemotherapy, and how she turned her experience into a powerful narrative through her writing. We delved into S.L. Wisenberg’s inspiration for starting her blog, Cancer Bitch, and how writing became a therapeutic outlet for her. She discussed the importance of expressive writing and how it can be a tool for processing emotions and experiences, especially for those diagnosed with breast cancer. S.L. also shared practical advice for aspiring writers, including the use of writing prompts and the significance of revising one's work. We touched on the broader themes of breast cancer culture, the disparities in treatment, and the political statements behind choosing or not choosing reconstruction. S.L. emphasized the importance of finding a supportive community, whether through writing groups, classes, or organizations like Gilda's Club. Throughout our conversation, S.L.’s humor and candidness shone through, making it clear why her work resonates with so many. Her insights into balancing personal experiences with privacy, and the therapeutic nature of writing, provided valuable takeaways for our listeners. Thank you, S.L., for sharing your story and wisdom with us. And to our listeners, remember that your experience is unique and worth sharing.

| 242. Breaking Barriers: Advocating for Yourself When You Have Inflammatory Breast Cancer with Katrece Nolen Part I | 15 Sep 2024 | 00:41:49 | |
Love the episode? Send us a text! I had the privilege of speaking with Katrece Nolen, a breast cancer survivor from Northern Virginia. We had such a lovely and long conversation that I ended up producing this episode in two parts. Today we dive into Katrece’s compelling story with inflammatory breast cancer (IBC). Katrece detailed the rigorous treatment process, which included chemotherapy, surgery, and radiation, emphasizing the importance of having knowledgeable doctors and advocating for oneself. She also highlighted the emotional and logistical challenges of managing a cancer diagnosis while raising three young children, and the critical role of community and family support. Katrece's story is a powerful reminder of the importance of self-advocacy, the need for specialized knowledge in treating rare cancers. In part II (EPS 423), we celebrate Katrece’s survivorship of 11+ years and what survivorship and surveillance look like for those diagnosed with breast cancer.

| 143. My Friend Has Breast Cancer, What Can I Do To Help? With Candace Bloomstrand and Lauren Rampello | 23 Jan 2022 | 00:07:12 | |
Love the episode? Send us a text! When you are diagnosed with breast cancer it is devastating. When you find out your friend has breast cancer, it can trigger PTSD, flashbacks of your own diagnosis, empathy for what your friend is about to endure, and a willingness to help, support, and be there for her. We often get asks from friends, what can they do to support someone who has recently been diagnosed with breast cancer. Similarly, those of us living with a diagnosis often talk about what not to say to someone with a recent diagnosis. Sometimes even the most helpful words of encouragement or best intentions can rub someone the wrong way. What better way to explore this conversation than to invite Candace Bloomstrand to interview her friend, Lauren Rampello what it was like to be diagnosed with breast cancer under 35, run a successful business, and explore how friends can offer support, knowing that the support you may request one day may look different a day, week, or month down the line.

| 241. FES PET vs FDG PET CT Scans: Which is Best for Metastatic Breast Cancer? | 11 Aug 2024 | 00:38:29 | |
Love the episode? Send us a text! In today's episode, we delve into the world of PET scans and other imaging modalities crucial for accurate diagnosis and staging of breast cancer. We are joined by two incredible guests: Dr. Kiser, the Medical Director of Molecular Imaging for Carilion Clinic, and Pam Kohl, a patient advocate living with metastatic breast cancer. Dr. Kiser provides an in-depth explanation of PET scans, particularly focusing on FDG and FES (also known as Cerianna) PET scans. FDG-PET scans use radioactive glucose to highlight cancerous tissues, while FES-PET scans target estrogen receptors, making them highly specific for ER-positive breast cancer. Dr. Kiser emphasizes the revolutionary impact of these imaging techniques in both diagnostics and therapeutics. Pam shares her personal experience with breast cancer, highlighting the importance of advocating for oneself. Diagnosed with early-stage breast cancer in 2009, Pam experienced a recurrence in 2017, which led to a stage 4 metastatic diagnosis. Her story underscores the critical role of PET scans in detecting metastasis early and informing effective treatment plans. Pam's experience with FES-PET scans has been particularly transformative, allowing her medical team to tailor her treatment precisely to her cancer's characteristics.

| 141. Realities of Knowing Your Genetic Results Came Back Positive. Mother Perspectives | 09 Jan 2022 | 00:30:26 | |
Love the episode? Send us a text! Today on Breast Cancer Conversations, we continue the conversation of germline breast cancer mutations and the weighted complexities of passing on genes that may lead to developing breast cancer, or other types of cancer. We are joined by: Dr. Mártir-Negrón: a medical geneticist at Miami Cancer Institute, a world class cancer center part of Baptist Health South Florida. Dr. Mártir-Negrón, is trained in internal medicine, genetic diagnosis and the treatment of patients with hereditary disorders. Dr. Mártir-Negrón, is board certified in medical genetics and internal medicine. Her clinical interests include genetic cancer risk assessment, breast cancer, colon cancer and ovarian cancer. We are also joined today with a panel of women, moms, and daughters, who have all been affected by either breast cancer or a germline genetic mutation, which increases one's risk for developing cancer. Abigail Johnston: who is living with metastatic stage iv breast cancer and carries the ATM gene Abigail’s mother, Beverly Schroeder who was diagnosed with early stage breast cancer only to discover later on that she too carries the ATM gene. Trish Chambers Balas three-time breast cancer survivor joins us with her daughter Maddie Balas. We also have Stephanie McLeod Estevez. After losing her mom to metastatic breast cancer, Stephanie decided not to rush into getting genetic testing. She focused on grieving the loss of her mother and starting her own family. It wasn't till after she became a mom and was diagnosed with breast cancer herself, that she discovered that she carries the BRCA2 genetic mutation. We don't have any control of our genes. Let me just start it with that. Our genes are the things that are in our DNA, it is something that we have no control over. This is not about blame. This is not about looking at somebody and saying it's your fault. It's about how do you deal with a genetic mutation that runs in a family. Welcome to the conversation. Latest News:

As a breast cancer survivor and advocate, I understand the anxiety that comes with scans involving radioactive tracers. Today, we aim to demystify this process and highlight its importance. I am joined by Dr. Kiser and Pam Kohl, who provide insights from both medical and patient advocate perspectives. We discuss the safety and precautions associated with nuclear medicine tests, particularly focusing on the issue of extravasation—when the radioactive material leaks into surrounding tissues instead of staying in the vein.

| #126. Why is "How Are You?" Such A Weighted Question? | 26 Sep 2021 | 00:20:59 | |
Love the episode? Send us a text! The question of "how are you? " used to be rather simple. The answer was always "I'm fine, how are you?" to which the person would usually say "I'm good," and the conversation would continue onto something like sports, our kiddos, or the weather. But today, with a breast cancer diagnosis, the question becomes even more nuanced and weighted. If a breast cancer friend of mine asks me how I'm doing, I naturally spur into a litany of aches and pains, the newest treatment I'm on, and when my follow up appointments are scheduled. If a friend who doesn't have breast cancer asks me how I'm doing, I find myself at a crossroads of the usual "I'm fine, and you?" and then spewing out more details about my latest bowel movement than they cared to know. How do we navigate the fine line of the weighted question: How Are You?

| 121. Sexual Health and Breast Cancer with Dr. Bober | 21 Aug 2021 | 00:41:27 | |
Love the episode? Send us a text! Sex is everywhere, whether it’s on your tv screen, a book you’re reading, or on social media. Yet, sexual health is a taboo subject for many people, and when undergoing cancer treatment, it can disrupt people’s day-to-day lives. In this episode we speak with Dr. Sharon Bober from Dana Farber Cancer Institute about the sexual health challenges breast cancer patients face, the effect cancer treatment has on the body, and how it affects sexual relationships. Sexual health needs to be a part of the conversation when speaking with oncologists. Just like being asked about various side effects asking about one’s sexual health while going through treatment should also be commonplace. We need to elevate survivorship voices and the long-term challenges we face. Learn what steps you can take to restore your sexual health and how to navigate these conversations with your medical providers. Welcome to the Conversation! Topics Discussed:

| 238. Integrating Naturopathic Medicine with Conventional Breast Cancer Care. Interview with Dr. Laura James | 14 Jul 2024 | 00:58:06 | |
Love the episode? Send us a text! In this episode of Breast Cancer Conversations, we had the pleasure of speaking with Dr. Laura James, a naturopathic oncologist based in Washington State. Dr. James provided a wealth of information about the role of naturopathic oncology in breast cancer care, emphasizing the importance of integrative medicine. She clarified the distinctions between integrative, complementary, and alternative care, and highlighted the collaborative approach she takes with conventional medical teams to support patients through their cancer journey. We discussed the critical role of the "four cornerstones" of health—diet, exercise, sleep, and stress management—in supporting overall well-being and reducing the risk of cancer recurrence. We also delved into the emotional and psychological aspects of a breast cancer diagnosis, particularly the societal pressures and internalized guilt that many women face. Dr. James emphasized the need for setting boundaries and practicing real self-care, which she defines as self-preservation; it is not selfishness. Throughout our conversation, Dr. James highlighted the importance of building a comprehensive care team and the challenges of integrating naturopathic oncology into conventional cancer care. She shared her experiences in developing relationships with conventional doctors and the ongoing effort to gain acceptance for integrative approaches. This episode is a must-listen for anyone looking to understand the holistic approach to breast cancer care and the importance of addressing both the physical and emotional aspects of the disease. Dr. James's expertise and compassionate approach offer valuable insights for patients, caregivers, and healthcare providers alike.
