Good News
Views: 164

Had my diagnostic mamogram on the good boob. The mass that I and the Dr felt turns out to be what they think is a very dense area of fat…...definately not cancer. Thank you for your love and prayers.

Talk about dumb I am 4 weeks from my routine annual mammo and the insurance company wouldn’t let me do both side today gotta go back in a month ARG… As is it isn’t hard enough for me to get off of work…............Oh well I got good news and I’m happy for that.

rachb, tmay like this.
debbiedimatteo threw a punch at your cancer.

Dear Tami,

That’s great news! Congratulations!

And I’m sorry about the insurance. When I came up against something like that, I tried to remember to be grateful that I had insurance at all. I’d still be mad, but a little less so.

Go celebrate!

Peace,
Kathy

Awesome news. Keep this memory close at hand so it will comfort you with every scare. Like I stare at a mole or freckle and start down that road and something stops me.
A couple of weeks ago I had a bone scan cause my onc was trying to figure out why I have lots of bone and muscle pain still. Happily, bone cancer never crossed my mind but when she went over the report , the 1st thing she said was,”well, you don’t have bone cancer…” It showed quite a bit of nasty arthritis in my knees and spine but all I could think of was OMG, I could have had bone cancer! Kudos to my onc. for not bringing up the possibility. This way, she sounded relieved and I didn’t have to go through the torture of having to wait for the result.
Here comes a big long distance hug for you and the near future{{{{{{{{{{{{xxx}}}}}}}}}}}}.

Check-up
Views: 200

Had my 6 month check-up last Friday. Dr felt something supsicious in my good breast, that along with the skin itching in the same area she felt warranted a diagnostic mammogram. I’m scheduled for this thursday @ 9:30 wish me luck. I do get the results the same day so at least I don’t have to wait and wonder….........

garlandkat, rachb sent you a prayer.

Tami, we will be thinking of you. Be sure to let us know how it goes. Glad your doctor is being cautious and making sure about everything.

Ditto what Jill said.
Best of luck, glad your doc is being cautious.
Sending you all the prayers I recieved today,
xoxo,
Debbie
