i have had this disorder for about 15 years. the accepted treatment of vitamin E is 400mg per day. The reduction of caffene is very important. that also includes chocolate, tea and soft drinks. drinking water is important and you should drink at least 2 to 3 quarts per day. also reducing the fat in your diet is helpful. getting a diagnoisic mammogram everyother year is best. colon and breast cancers are not related. if you can tolerate the lumps the soreness will pass after a few days. often it is best to just leave them alone. in most cases women with this disorder have the lowest breast cancer rates.
