Increased proportion of male breast cancer

Biermolei 52-year-old American has been suffering from breast cancer two and a half years, although he has already done a breast surgery, chemotherapy once every two weeks, but the cancer has spread to bones or in. Morey said that three years ago, he began feeling a tingling sense of the breast, did not care, or in his wife's insistence to the hospital for an examination, "Our family has been worried that my wife will have breast cancer, I was actually results .
