Breast cancer check without insurance?
I’ll have to check for breast cancer again because the previouse result was not completely negative. But I got no insurance now. So this makes me wonder how other people with breast cancer with no insurance would have the check or treatment? Is there some kind of support center or nonbenefit center. I’ll be thankful if somebody gives me tips.

Also, please read the info at the link below:
This is "The National Breast and Cervical Cancer Early Detection Program", gives states the option of providing medical assistance through the Medicaid program to eligible women. Eligibility requires that women were screened through the CDC’s NBCCEDP’s program and found to have breast or cervical cancer or pre-cancers.

Sometimes you get a false positive , if the person doing the screening is going by a "Visual" detection rather than a full test. This means that the cells might appear to be cancerous at "plain sight" but it might be a false positive, do make sure that it’s really cancer before undergoing any treatment.
