Yes, I am a 57 year old female. I have sharp pains in right breast. they come and go. This has happened before, within the last month. I have type 2 diabetes. So I don t drink soda. I was using artificial sugar but have stopped that. I did drink tea with a little sugar on Monday. Just saw this and wanted to see what you say. Thank You
