NEW YORK (AP) - Christina Applegate says she has a clean bill of health after being treated for breast cancer. Applegate, who's 36, tells "Good Morning America" in an interview to air today, she's "absolutely 100 percent clear and clean. It did not spread. They got everything out." So, she says she's "definitely not going to die from breast cancer." Applegate says when she first found out she had breast cancer she was "so mad." She "was just shaking" but says she immediately had to go into a "take-care-of-business-mode," asking all the questions about treatment. Applegate, whose mother battled breast cancer, says she began getting mammograms six years ago when she was 30. She's scheduled to appear on a one-hour TV special, "Stand Up to Cancer," to air on ABC, CBS and NBC September fifth to raise money for cancer research.
