Medical Details
In April 2020, Amala started experiencing pain in her right breast and felt a lump that had increased in size. Her family initially took her to Silver Line Hospital in Kammanahalli, where she was asked to get an X-Ray and FNAC test. As they did not have the facility to conduct the tests, they were referred to Specialist Hospital, where Amala was able to get the FNAC test done, post which she was diagnosed with Carcinoma in her right breast.
A family friend then asked the family to visit HCG Hospital, Bengaluru. At HCG Hospital, they consulted Dr.Jaganath Dixit, after seeing the reports she underwent a Mammogram and Biopsy. The next step was for her to undergo surgery conducted by Dr. Jaganath. The lump was removed and sent in for testing. Post the test results, Amala has to undergo 8-cycles of Chemotherapy and Radiotherapy.
