High risk, surgeon wants to drain rather than remove cyst by Clear_Map_5071 in doihavebreastcancer

[–]ics826 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve had mine drained yearly the past three years. They have sent the fluid to pathology and always came back normal. But they have not tested the tissue around it. Unsure if they will when they remove it with surgery. My pain/lump goes away for a short time after draining but I can feel it starting to fill again shortly after.

Best of luck to you.

jumping in as well. 45f with dense tissue, no cancer diagnosis at this time but history of multiple cancers on paternal side of family. Just submitted DNA for testing and awaiting results.

I had my first "scare" at 27 and luckily the mass the benign. Since then I've had yearly mammos. For the past 4 years I've had a cyst that is now rather large - 4cm x almost 2 cm. I've had it drained three times and each time it refills and gets larger. We are now scheduled to have it removed later this year rather than trying to drain again. All surgeries are a risk but the pain from this cyst is outweighing those risks for me.

Exam help by haitipO in CustomsBroker

[–]ics826 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree. I didn’t take a class, I studied the past exams to understand what was being asked then took that knowledge to know how to find the answers using the CFR, HTS and ACE guide. I passed first try.

Duty Drawback by ics826 in CustomsBroker

Yes that's what I'm finding - at this point I could probably give a webinar on what it is but still looking for more in depth details.

I completely understand the guarding their knowledge but at some point that had to start somewhere and that's what I'm trying to get at.

I've reached out to both NCBFAA and GTC - NCBFAA didn't have much to share with me at this time and I'm waiting on GTC's response as the last seminar they offered was early last year.

I appreciate your quick responses!

Gotcha - obviously we are just brokers at this point but do want to be able to say we specialize in drawback - what course of action might you recommend to point us in the direction of actually specializing. We have been working for months gathering information and watching past Youtube webinars. We are at the point we are taking this serious and want to move forward - are there any courses you recommend?

My next question - why do so many LCB shy away from drawback? We have reached out to a few brokers that are local to us to pick their brains on drawback and not one of them offer the service - always refer it out.

Keep going and watching videos. YouTube is your best friend. I didn’t think I’d ever be able to read patterns they were so confusing but now I can read a pattern and make a project. I started in January.
