Balebusta of the Month

Are you one of the many American mambera of that marveioua inauranoa program called Mediearet I know it'a a peraonal quaetion—you have to be a certain age to be aUe to anawar yaa, but if you do, I can't bear you anyway ao don't worry about it The only problim with taUdng about it is obvioaB. How do I know so modi on the aubjectT Never mind— wa needn't gat into that ainea we're an adnlta and we're aqppoaad to be kind to each other. But I do have grievanoea and I don't know how to get aJl my problama settled once and for aU. For one tUng, afaioa reoriving that littla lad, wUta and bhie card, thcre'a beoQi notUng but confusion from theee people. IlMy keep getting mbced iqp with a secondary inauranoa program and they're making me nuta. Tbqr don't believe what I teU them, ao eveiTthing baa to be repeated. Kind of Uke a poorly bdiaved Uttle kki, but I can't get the attention of the right person. By now I'm neariy positive they've hired one person just to tiy to keep my records in complete chaos. laying to reach theae people is Uke attempting to orlnt thia planet by fU4>ping your arma. There are tdqphone nundiers prominently jninted on sU their information; thqr even teU a peracm how to reach the proper office and what the hours are and how (âd they 11 be to hdp. Hat Another joke. To beg^ with, you'd better be retired OT at leaat not very .busy on the day you call. It's almost impossible to get through their lines, so you wait, and wait and wait If you're like me, as you wait you keep getting lesa and less patient and hotter and hotter under the collar. It'a an eumple of finsteatian canisd to its hljîeat lavd. And the aaddest thing is, we don't have much choice about it. When you reach that critical birthday, you are on Medicare whether you want to be or not Oh, I suppose you could keep lying about your age, but that woukl get pretty comidicated after a while. No, most medical offices now automatically teU people they wiU file the proper claims and the patient needn't wony until later. Yeah, you needn't worry—just Uke you needn't be concerned if an inq>ector tells you your houae has termites. PeraonaUy, I was a lot happier (and wotried less) when I waa completdy in charge of my own bills and payments. I like knowing what this or that bandit charges fa- that piddUng UtUe aervice, and.I.4Pwd bdog completely on my own'when it oams to îaylDg foi^ it' It's true there were times whoi I ydled loud enough to be heard in the next area code, but I paid my bills. The aggravation was short: when I saw the bOl and whm I paklit This is different. First I get the biU, tdling me not to pay it Then, because Medicare invariably screws it up, I get notice th^ don't even intend to pay it Then the original office sends a pathetic little second statement nudging for paymmt. Then the telephone business starts, with supreme effort expended to (a) maintain my compusure and (b) accomplish a satisfactory conchiaion. I usually fail cm both counts. WeU, that's it. You now know, if you didn't already, I'm 66. You also know who can push me over my peraaaxl. I know I can tell mysdf to chiU out, but facts are facts. I think the entire bureaucratic system of health instu-ance in this country stinks. There. Now I don't have to teU you any of that againi

What's news? A questitni takad of me noeotly is aa folknra: "Wbjr do yoa meet all the inoomiag Soviet Jewish families at the airport and pot their pictiue in the This qoeetion was about the last thhig I would anticipate from a Mknr Jew so I'm sure that my immediate answer Ml short of a proper explanation. If you're like me, yoD always walk away frtnn a situatioa like this—later thinking what you should have said at the time. So, here it is... after the fact, but perhqw a little better thought oat Hie emigratiao of Soviet Jewish refugees—and the reestaUisfanMnt of the State <rf Israel—are two of the moet positive and sensational news stories of our time. It was the Jews of the world—includbg many from Omaha—who years ago started the kng, hwd, umelenting campaign to free Soviet Jews. It was the Jews of the world who pushed and pushed the Soviet Unioii ultimately gaining unbelievable cooceasiops leading to the surge of freedom now running rampant throughout Easten Europe. While many frKtors played a role in the new and yet nmergfaig ptJitigal m^ tiwi't liniipl^ nr minimiM fha work <rf Jewish activiats in contributing to these (j^obal changes. Yee, the gatee to freedom have now opened for Soviet Jews and thqr are wasting no time in getting out while the getting is good. Here, we have one of the biggest human-interest stories of all time, and the M»Jewish meda doesn't seem toeare. When was the laat time you saw a photograph of an arriving Soviet Jewiah family in the Omaha WosldHarald, or on tetoviafaiB, or ovn diaeossed on the radk)7 Here, we have a great ongoing stoiy of refugeee being resettled in Omsha as part of a woridwide effial to provide freedom and aafe haven for Soviet Jews and most of the media ignores what is going on. I personalty am thriDsd that the Omaha JewU Press k>oks upon Soviet Jewish resettlement and the Operatioa Exodus Campaign, which makes resettlement poo- sible, as a most in^OTtant atctry to cover. We are doing what we can to let the Soviet Jews coming into Omaha know that eadi and every family ia importent to us and that we as a conununity are at their aide to help them. Do you remember the headline from last week's paper? "Thankyou, Jewsof theworid... thank you, Israel" ... That to me is the proper answer to the queetion.

In it, Americans are guaranteed inedma of speech, or rdigioD, of the press, and of aasembly. Or, more sbnply, freedom. That's what it all translates to: the people of the United States are guaranteed their freedom. All ctf the songs, sU of the speeches, all of the great works that laud tihe United States of America aa the Land of the FVee, owe their praisee to this one little paragrqdt. Vntbout it, no matter what the reet of the Constitutirai says about democnu7, no American coold ever be called free. All my life I've been taught that I'm living in the greatest country on Earth, that America is the best there is, and that we caq do it better than anyone else, whatever "it" may be, from computers to wars to standard of living. Wdl, over the years I've found out that this is, shall we say, an overstatement. America messee up. niings go wrong. The Indisns, the Japanese-Americans of the Wtnld War II era, the homeless of today, all could teetify to the fact that America has some frdrib' sizeable warts. So I've had to reexamine thoee claims that we're infellible, invincible—that God is, in fact, an American. What is it about this country that can look all of America's mistakes m the eye and atfflaay, "lam ri^teous"? Why is America ao qiedal? And iJl of my answers somehow lead bade to that little mn-on sentenoe that began kng ago as a political oompranise for Coostitotkmal ratificatioa. To that short First Ameodmeot which says that no one can teD me, "You must thhik this," or, "This shall be your rdigkm." It'a a sentenoe strong enough tohddbedc all of the errors of jtidgment and vinlatiflns of rights that thieatep to doud my thoof^ta about this country. It's strong enoufl^ to convince me that, no matter what mistakes she may make, America ia worth the effort needed to pateh things iq>, to tighten iq> the riggphig and keep sailing forwar«L Just as it was revolutionary when written two hundred yean ago, so is it vital, insepsrable frtnn the heart of what America is today. Tlw ric^hta guaranteed me in the First Amendment are 80 baaic ao much a part (rf how I am, that I rarely even think about them. I cannot fathom living in a place where I did not have the right to think, to believe what I wanted to. Our other rights—the ri^ts to privacy, to jury trial, to decUne seU-incrimination, to property, to legal counsel—are aD vital, and taking any of them away would be an unforgivable violation of basic human righta. But take away the rig^t to speak, to believe freely, and you'n gettfag right into a person's mind, into Usor her soul. Without those ri^its, no other freedom is true or cer tahL Just look at bistoty; the first thing people like Hitler, Lenin, Mao, and Botha have always done to get control over their people* haa been to take awqr those meet bask rights. Aiid Jitst look at bow much easier thbigs got for them oooe they shut people's mouths uid minds; Uke shooting flab in a barrd. But keep the gags off and the praaaee rmudng, and no one can do what those pooplo have done. Keep the First Amendmmt, that one little aentence, and Amsrien will forevar remain the Land of the FVee. Of ooiirsa^ thwe an ahrays those people around who try to weaken our First Amendment rights. You have the people like Joeeph McCarthy who thought that evaiyon* had the ri^t to qtaak freely, except thoee denied Commnaiata; you have the people who thought "The Leat Temptation of fchrist" waa one temptation too many: you have the people who beUeve that everyone baa the right to proteai—so kmg aa th^y don't cauae a atin and you li^«« the DNIile who thought Huddebeny Fbm waa juat tob eefmaakKU to be tai«fat in acboola— to name a fbw. And I've got to admit, I don't much like theeepeople. Come to think of it, than are a lot of people that I don't much like. There's the White Aryan Resistance, the Ku Khix Klan, the American Nasi Party, the Society for Historical Review (thoee who say that the Holocaust waa aO a fake), and all of those other deeply intellectual paqda who are motivated sddy by an in-ational but very convenient hatred. And if it waa up to me, you can bet that no one would say things like what theee people do. But it's not up to rte. And that's the wsy it shouM be. I ain Jewish. It hurts when I hear the things that these people say. I've read and heard so much about the Holocaust—much of it first-hand from survivora—that hearing the so<:aUed "histwical revisionists" say that

it never realty hmened, hearing the White Ai^^an Reaistance call frn't^ death of all Jews, bearing the man-ontlMHrtnet immediatdy beghi to Uame Jeiriah peopk for all of bis harddi4> hurts me, makea me angry. I want to shout at thoee people, "You have no ri|^t to say thoae things about mel" But then I step back, and I realize that, yea, thQT actually do have that right And I step bade some more, and I realize that I would never take that rij^t away from them-for the rims^ and very selfish reas<m that if I can take it away from them, they can tdce it away from me. Those pec^ are Americans just as siu-ely as I am, and at the heairt of that title Uea that eve^present sentence saying that I have no rij^t to silence them. It's a aentence that I love so mudi, a right I protect so jealoualy, that I am willing to "suffer the slings and aiTowa" of theee people's vengeful words to ke^ it safe. When I took a trip to Israd a couple of yean ago, I was aaked by a young student, "Which do you think of yourself aa firat, a Jew w an American?" I had to think about that one; it was a question that had never really occurred to me before. I finally answered that the essence of America was that I could be both without conflict, but that, were I someday forced by America to choose between the two, I would pick "Jew," because the titie "American"' would no longer hold any meaning for me. To me, the entire foundation of the word "American" springs &t>m this one amendment, which says that I can believe what I want, that I can be who I want to be, and that no one in this country can tell me otherwise. One little, short, nm-on sentence. A oollecti(»i of words on parchment in some bermeticslly sealed g^ass box in Waahington. A few strokes of ink 3,000 miles away ftom my hoin« represent, to me, everything that is vital, everything that has profound meanhig in the statement, "I am an American." I can say what I fed, believe in tbegodorgodscrgoUencalf ofiqychoosmg—orinnone' of tiba above. I can print my ideas and opinions, I can express who I am, I can be toy own human bdng. I can give vent to my souL All of these things, all of these essential, vital, fundamentd aspects of a free life are hdd in this collection of words. There is no other such sentence in all of the literature and institutions that make up this nation. As long as the First Amendment is intact, I wOl be proud to say, "I am an American."

look around the Jewish Community Cmtar. ire's a new face! Beth Cobra is the new B'nai B'rith Young Organiution OBYO) diractor. A recent gradnate of Drake University, Beth majoced in education but didn't like all the rod tape that went with teaching in the pubHc school systems. "I'm very excited about being here," she said. "I'm very interested in community service work, but I want to wait and see what the kids are doing before I make any plans." Beth thinks it is very important to help the BBYO clu4>ters expand on what they are currency doing. "I don't want to rush in and try to run everything," she said. As a native of St. Louis, Omaha is not completely imfamiHar territory to BetL "I used to come here in M^ acbod with Temple Youth Groups."

Beth has worked as a resident assistant at Drake University for the last two years. She bdieves this e^Mrienoe has helped prepare her for her new position at the "J." "I realize that you need to have discipline. That sometimes I have to be a figure of authority. But these are also the people I'm going to be friends with." So get togetbar, those ^ you in BBYO can show Beth what a warm wekxmie Omaha can put togabher. If you've been lax about attending meetings during the summer, get your energy together and go to the next meeting. It's past the Fourth of July, but it may not be past the flag waving time. I know you kids can put out a welcome mat. Make this a big one. Beth doesn't have much background with BBYO, but I know shell catch on fast. Just don't use all the acronyms you know in the first five sentences you spetk to her. She says her parents were "thrilled" that she was going to work for a Jewish agency. Her older sister, Paula, works for CNN in Atlanta and her H-year-old brother is still in high school. . So next time you're in the "J" pop into Beth's office (it's located right off the canteen room) and tell her " HL " Even if you're not in BBYO I know she'd like to met you.

JEWISH INTRODUCTIONS INTERNATNMAL Nebraska's local, innovative and personalized Jewish Introduction Service. Ages 21-101. tL^ us And ttiat someone special.

By Rabbi Myer 9. Kripktf © 1901 sap Parashat: Plabas DoooMd to firosttaitloa Onoe a year, by a kind of "grandfather clause." I am invited to tpsak to a group of Christian fundamentalists who come together to sîdy Scripture. "Invited" is hardfy the ri^t word, unless it is taken in the sense of a notice I once saw on the bulletii board of the Coast Guard Academy in New London, CT: "Admiral and Mra. (The commandant of the Academy) irilTbe at home on Suulay afternoon. Cadets are invited and will attend." The "wiU attend" in' my case is to honor a Jew who was held in high esteem by the group a generation ago, and whose shoes, so to speak, I fill w^ I lecture to than on some passage of the Bible. Although the Christian Scriptures obviously mterest them man than our Bible, they are ahnrays pleased to hear a discussion of some passsge from this Hebrew Scriptures. A few weeks ago I spoke to them on a passage ham Jeremiah, where the prophet lamenta the weakness or the perversity or the complexity of the human heart. Perhaps we should bear in mind that by "heart" Jerendah may have meant what we mean hy "mind." In any case, without seeing Jeremiah as a protofsychologist, we do understand that Jeremiah was frustrated at the complexity and unpredictabihty of human behavior. It is the veiy iSrst chiq>ter of Jeremish's book which is our Haftarsh for this week, the first of three Haftarot "of rebuke," two from Jeremiah and the devastating first chapter of Isaiah, which annuaUy precede Tisha b'Av. And it LB this, of course, that led me to think of my lecture to the Christian fundamentalists to which I referred. Jeremiah was frustrated by his life as a prophet and servant of his God. His demand for moral exceUoDoe and rqjientance was never met by his people—whom he dearly loved. Perhaps we should say that the deinand was of such dimensions th^ it could never be met, neither (m the levôf the iodividadl, nor (m ê levd of sodety. He demanOed iodtiality of both and succeeded with neither. But such, after dl, is the fate of the prophet. He is not like the poUtician, who understands his craft as the art of the poaaible. He is not like the military laeder, who can command and demand, the prophet can neither enforce his moral preachment, as an admbralcommandant can, nor trade rtff this for that, as the polir tidan and the persecutor regularly do.

Qinabtrg repljwl with a nwful smile, "What goee on here in Isnel and what you see than on U.S. news reports are two different stotiee." In a sober mood, the Miaakm group left Miagav Am and the border with Lebanon and drove to the Golan Heights. Tbe trip took tlie aanw amount of time aa the drive many Onuhans make from their homae to the Nebraska football gamee, leea than ooe hour.

Joodi VeitMT with a hog of joy So who won the latest war, the Persian Gulf War? If yoia aak Gen. Norman Schwaitikapt hell say, "The United SUtes won," and hell point to tbe limited loes of American aoldiera' livss, the tidnrtape paradea and the increaae in world opinion for America's miUtaty might. If you ask the Arab countriea, however, yonll get a difierent answer Saodi Arabia, Egypt, Kuwait, even Iraq (since Saddam Hussein is still ia power with an army intact). Aak an laraeU like Dr. Jacob GoUberft seokr research fellow at tbe Dayan Center of Tel Aviv University, and hell say. . "Syria ia the biggest winner of them all." According to Dr. GoUberg, Syria tacitly joined the coalition of allied forces in the Gulf, sat out the war and was handad one Ullioo dollars by the Saudi Arabian government at the war's end. And what is Syria doing with the money? Again, according to Dr. Goldberg, Syria is buying advanced Scud "C" misailas from North Korea. Since Syria is not at war with any Arab country, the Israelis have to assume that the Soida era intended for them. "The Palestinian eituation ia not a security problem that threatena to deetroy larael," aaid Dr. GoMberg earlier to the 34 Omaha UJA Miaaion partidpanta at Tel Aviv Univeraity. "Strata«ically, militarily, the problem is Syria. The i«al name of the game now is reading the intentions of Syria's Preeident Aaead. All Syria's reaourcas are devoted to ite military," continued Dr. Goklberg, and we see three options for Assad: "One, Syria gains enough military power to defeat larael: "Two, Syria gains enough military powiar to atart a war and not be defeated by Israel; and "Three, and the moet likely scenario accepted by Israeli military experta, Syria gaina enough military power not to atart a war, but to come to the bargaining table and negotiate from atrength."

"Our choke of where to spend the daUara ia crucial," OMiduded Dr. OoUberg. "Do we spend it on a satellite ovariooUng faraway Iraq, on another 10 F-16 jets to defend ourselvee againat Shfria or on abaorbiDg 260,000 olim?" As a footnote to the Persian Gulf War and while it aeemad that no one was looking, Syria effectively annexed Lebanon and now haa 40,000 troope stationid there. Six weeks after Iraq invaded Kuwait, Syiis received a graan light go-ahead fnm Washington, according to Dr. GokUwrg, and "padfisd" Wsst Beinit They then signed an agreamant with Labaaeaa government (rf6cials which requfawe then to consult with Syris prior to every government sctkm, and Lebanon is, for all practical poipoaes, a puppet atata of Syria. And there are still Jsws living in ^yria, 4,600 of them. Ths Joint Distributions Committee's Director of Missions and Viaita Yoaai Natani informad Miaaka par tic^wnts that "the worst Jewish plight is to Syria today: we an trying to buy Jewa' way out." Iliere's little that remains of the Scud damage from the recent war. In the last few months, laraaiis have either cleared away the rubble or raboiit damaged buildings. Hardsst hit waa the Hatikvnh araa of Tal Aviv's Ramat Gan. New York's Project Renewal conununity center there, conqtleted only laat year, waa almoat totally deetroyed. Today, it standa rabuilt, with additional funda raiaed by UJA in that dty. "I've been in five wara," aaid Gershon Priewer, UJA gukle for the Omaha Community Miaakw to Israel, "and the hardest thing for us was not thst we were not on the front, but that we were putting gaa maaka on oui klda." Every laraeli family relatea storiea of the recent war and even the t-shlrta ahow the Israali sense of survival humor. Beknr a picture of a Patriot mlsails hitting a Scud againat a black sky reads one t-shirt: Td Aviv nightlifet "After vialUng the Oolan, I can safely aay, 'Don't give it back,'" eaUl Miaakm partkdpant Karen PoUak. "Don't give an inch back. "Would you give your rooftop to your anamy?"

L'Chaim.â€žTo Summer skin care for your dog According to o publlshad stud/, Mn disorders ore one of the most common concerns of dog~bwners. The skin is the largest organ of your pet's body and deserves speciol core. This Is particularly true In the summer months when grooming becomes especially important orxi con be cor^sidered o form of preventive medicine. The doctors at Miracle HMt Animal HoipM said owners con expect shedding during the summer months, but should be alert not to let mots form. These can entrap dirt and become on ideal breeding ground for bacteria, yeast, and fungi that cause skin infections. A strong ikin odor can be a warning sign of skin infection. Constant chewing and scratching ore also symptoms of skin problems and can result in serious, self-inflicted lesions. Frequent brushing and occosiorxil shampooing with a pet shampoo ore recommerxied. Laundry detergents or people

shampoos or soaps con often irritate your pet's skin and should be avoided. Gall your veterinarian if you hove questions about which products to use or if you suspect your dog has a skin problem.

Stretching has benefits fuel Hiyeicdi TWapy, lac, on OrrKiha:^ based private practice physical therapy group, has opened its fourth Omaha oreo outpatient clinic. The new clinic, "Work PerformoTKe Center," is located In tfie West Omofw industrial district on opproxirriotely 94th ond H streets. Stretching exercises ore perceived as boring, tedious, and painful. As o result of this, most people shy away from any type of stretching activity. According to Mike Berlin, a physical therapist and president of Excel Physical Therapy in Onrwho, many of our dolly aches ortd pains ore a result of poor posture and poor flexibility. Mr. Berlin suggests a proper stretching program, using controlled static stretching OS opposed to bouncir>g stretching, prior to engoging in any physical activity.

Pmldant Gaorge Bush reointly dtveloped otrlal fibrillation, on ODnonvKil iliyllwi of 1n9 hiort. In thtt proous of seeking on underlying COUM of his otriol fIbrllkiHo^, President Bufh's doctors discovered he has Gove's dlseote, on infwnune obnormolity tfxit comes overproduction of thyroid hormone (hyperthyrokflsm). Atrial fibrillation often results fronn thyroid hoirmone excess. Interestingly, a couple of years ogo, Barbara Buslfi was also dlognmed as having Grav«'s dteoote. The thyroid gland is a small two-lobed gkmd located in the front part of the lower neck. The hormone It produces has wide-ranging effects on the body's metobolitm. The release of thyroid hormone from the thyroid glond into ttw blood stream is governed by otfier honmones released by the pituitary glorxi and the hypotholomus in ttw brain. Grove's disease is o condition in which messengers produced by the immune system imitate the pituitary gland messenger honrxxie by stimulating the thyroid glortd to produce and release thyroid hormone. Usuolly, the pituitory glands acts like a thermostat, measuring the levels of thyroid hormone in the bloodstream and regulating the amount of messenger produced to keep the level of thyroid honnone steady. In Grave's disease tfie messenger from the immurte system is not regulated and, tfterefore, keeps stimuloting the tfiyroid glarxJ to enlarge and to produce ar>d release hormone even though the hormone level in the blood stream rises above the normal range. The immune system messenger may also stimulate otfter ports of the body, especially the muscles thot move the eyes. When this occurs, the njuscles enlarge, ttte eyes oppear to bulge, and vision may be disturbed. Eye changes were prominent in Mrs. Bush's form of Grave's disease.

The symptoms of hyperthyroidism reflect the wideranging effects of thyroid hormone on the bocVi metabolism. In odditton to otriol fibrillotion, from which PmnldMtt Bush tuffarid, tymptoms may Include weight loss. Intolerance o« hJMJt, >mimt moist hands and fwt, nerVgutnen, difficulty sleeping, scanty nteratnnl periods, muscle weakness, rapid heartbeat, shortness of breath, frequent bowel movements, enlargement of the thyroid gkmd, and tliinning hair. - -^ There ore several approaches to the treatment of Gravt'$ diseoM. The treatment selected is dependent upon patient age, physician judgment, and patient preference. One approach Is to suppress thyrokJ gland function with mecficine for several months, during ttils time the person may need to take thyroid hormone pills to avoid having low ttiyrokl honnone levels (hypothyroidism). This treatment is successful about holf of the time. It is used most frequently in younger potients. During treatment, the tfiyroki glorwl returns to normal size. The immune system messenger often disoppeors during the time the gland is suppressed ond, when treatment is stopped, the t^oid gland functions normally. Over many years the thyroid gland, which is damaged by the prolonged stimulotion of the immune system messer>ger, may gradually foil to worit. Therefore, people treated by this approach require periodic evoluotion of their thyroid function. Another approach is to destroy most of the thyrokl gland with radioactive Iodine that is injected Into the vein and token up by ttw gland. A third opprooch is to surgically remove all or port of the gland. Both of these lost tv»o approaches may leave the person hypothyroid, and thyroid honmone pills ore then required for the remainder of the person's life.

The gynecologic exam: Good health for a better life AAony women ore anxious about having ttieir annual pelvic exam, but knowing what to expect will moke it easier, soys Jean Ann Bolllnger, director of education for Planned Ponntliood of Oweho CeMiicll Bluffs. Ms. Bollinger offers these tips to help women prepare for the office visit: Before the office visit, moke a list of questions you wont to ask so you won't forget them. Schedule your appointment between menstrual periods. AAenstTuol fluid may affect the accuracy of some laboratory tests. Don't douche or use any voginoi preparations for ot least 24 hours before tt>e appointment. These may mosk some vaginal conditions. At the clinicion's office, you will be asked for o urine sample to test for ditabetes, signs of inflammation or infection of tfie kidneys, or pregnancy. Urinating before the exam also will moke you comfortable. Before the examination, Ms. Bollinger soys, you will be asked questions relating to your gynecologic corvJition. The

more accurate your onswers, the better your clinician con help you. Once in the examination go ahead orxl ask the clinician wlwt is being done. The exam, which lasts just a few minutes, has four steps: external genital exam, speculum exam, bimonuol exam and rectovoginol exam. AAs. Bollinger soys tfie clinician will look for signs of irritation, obrKxnralities and disease, which includes o Pap test for coTKer. Other procedures will irKlude o breast exam and a reading of your blood pressure ond weight. Bollinger suggests asking how to do o breast self-exom so that you may cl>eck your breast once a month at home just after your period. Most breast lumps ore not cancers, any abnormality shoukl be reported. After the exam, ttie clinician will discuss the results and answer your questions. Planned Porenthood provides clinic services, including annual exams, birth control OTKI free pregnancy testing, to women of all ages and income levels.
