The actress Andrea Torre She told what her process has been like to beat breast cancer.
The 44-year-old artist did a live video on her social networks, where she talked about the treatments she underwent and how she found out she had the disease.
“I’m going to tell you my breast cancer story. Two years ago, my husband found a lump on me, I went to my gynecologist, he examined it, told me it was a lump of fat and nothing was wrong. A year later, my husband found it for me again, but bigger.”
“I go to the gynecologist again and now he sends me to do the mammogram. It was my first mammogram, at 43 years old, they didn’t do it at 40, 41, or 42, I always told my doctor and he told me ‘no, wait, wait’. So, they do the biopsy and the studies. They tell me one, two days after my birthday yes, I have breast cancer“, he said.
The actress of “Una Familia de Diez”, wife of the producer of this series, Pedro Ortiz de Pinedo, decided to tell her experience now that is fully recovered.
The first oncologist she consulted told her that she had to remove her breast, but she looked for another specialist and he gave her alternatives.
“The small tumor was three centimeters and with chemotherapies it was reduced to 0.2, it was a small thing, and the doctor told me ‘we are going to remove everything and rebuild.’ That happened on February 6 of this year, I had surgery and the plastic surgeon was spectacular.
“If with my testimony I can help someone, here I am. If you feel something strange; small, medium, large, whatever, go straight to an oncologist,” she added.
As part of her treatment, Andrea Torre said, she also underwent 16 radiotherapies and 12 immunotherapieswhich concluded a few days ago.
