follow up

so you know that you have a good doctor/nurse practitioner when she is worried and wants to dig into something even when others tell her that it is all good. i got a phone call on friday and she wants me to see a breast surgeon. She kept telling me she just wanted to be sure. She was trying to convince me to go when I had already said, "ok" and "sure" three or four times. Oy!

I was stressed enough during the last appointment. i don't think anything could strees me out more. i will just do what i did during my ultrasound: pray. know what I prayed? please God, don't let me worry. i know that nothing was going to change in that very second so what else was there to ask for? so i will pray for the same thing...not to worry....

maybe you could too...

mammograms

What a stressful way to spend the afternoon. I have had some weird issues going on so the doctor said, "Let's get that checked out". So I made an appointment and went in today.

Stressful.

Have the first "boob-squish". go sit down and wait. Oh, um, we need some more pictures of 2 specific spots. Hmm, ok.

Thanks. Go have a seat.

Oh, we need to do an ultrasound, so I am going to go get that ready. OOOOOOOOOk.

Hang out here and wait.

Come on in. Ultrasound, hmmm. Take a picture of that. Oh, take that one too. Hmmm,  click, click, click.

Wait here I need to ask the radiologist if she want to check this out.

Wait.

Oh, yes. She would like to check it out herself.

Hmmmm.

Well, looks good. Alot of cysts, but they don't do anything or mean anything. don't know why you are having the issues, but it's all good.

Well that's good, but really? Did you have to put me through an hour and a half of stress? They were nice. They were sweet. They tried to make me comfortable, but i was totally wiped out by the time I got home.
