“It’s only one fat ball, nothing serious “, was what they told Geovanna Cruz Rodríguez in different hospitals to whom you went the first time you felt a package in her right breast.
Geovanna not only suffered a misdiagnosis where her life was endangered, but is currently facing a lack of medications in the Hospital Regional, which has led her to ask for money in the streets of port of Veracruz, because the cost of Trastuzumab exceeds 40 thousand pesos.

In the Antorchista Health Center They told him the same thing, after consulting several doctors he decided to trust the results, until little by little the little package it began to grow to a diameter of two inches.
Again he consulted with doctors from the Hospital Tarimoya, who operated on her to remove that “fat ball”, in the operation the doctors noticed that this tumor was not a simple benign ganglion.
“When I left the operation the doctor told me that it was nothing of what she thought, that they believed they were going to remove a single piece, I (the doctor) touched the piece and it fell apart and took it out completely until everything was cleaned (.. .) that’s where I was diagnosed with stage three breast cancer, “said Geovanna.

On June 28, 2019, he was diagnosed Cancer, after a week of studies and getting money to pay for all the supplies she needed, her right breast was removed, she says that because at that time the extinct Popular insurance It did not cover all the expenses that it required.

He had to resort to an amparo process with the hospital so that they gave him the medicine, since the Trastuzumab You have to be taking it once a month for a year, while the other two have to be for five years.
“Right now they interrupted me again because there is none, on June 16 it was my turn, but there is none, I send to ask the doctor, but they tell me that he has not arrived and while my treatment is already interrupted,” he said.
