The Beginning

So 10 months ago I was diagnosed with Stage IV Metastasized Breast Cancer. I was in shock to say the least. A few months prior I suddenly started having chest pains, but not like heart symptoms, but literally my chest plate was in pain. I had been working out very hard with a trainer since the beginning of the year, so because this pain came on from one day to the next, it seemed, I coughed it up to just being really sore from working out. I thought I must have done too much weight on the flys or pull downs, or something. I believed I might have pulled a muscle in my chest or something but I never expected what I was about to encounter and deal with. I waited about a week before going to a doctor. I didn't wait long because I figured this soreness should be gone and I should start feeling better, but it wasn't happening. So I began to get concerned that maybe I did pull or tear a muscle in my chest, which was gonna suck if I needed some type of surgery. Now I wish thats all it would've been.
