I’M ALL CLEAR!!!

Oh thank goodness. Whew, just...whew!
Had a better resolution one done and then waited 15 mins until they looked at it. No need to go to ultrasound. It went exactly as you all said it would including the happy outcome.

Thank you for being my village of women - I felt surrounded and I love you all for that gift.

Hi Missy!!!

Thank you. It’s a relief for sure.

I was just checking in over on your thread - I’ll try to catch up with it later but I’m hoping you’re doing ok? Been away for a while dealing with stuff...

hi everyone

I’ve not been posting for a while as I’ve been dealing with some personal issues.

It turns out I’ve missed my mammogram for 3 years - can’t believe that but it happened. I went last week and they’ve just called saying their are irregularities and I need another one tomorrow with possible ultrasound. I’m scared and worried and was hoping for someone to talk to about this. My Mom is gone, no aunts and my sister MIA. Everyone is at work right now and I have no one to talk to.

Your companionship right now would sure be appreciated. Family history of breast cancer...:(

I am really sorry you are going through this. I have posted on this exact topic in the past. I have had 2 separate times where I had the same thing. Call for more views, led to sonograms. then 2 separate times I was sent for biopsies. I was scared out of my mind. And both times my results came back benign. A call back does NOT mean the worst. It means they need to take a closer look. I wish you positive vibes and I hope you have the same results that I had. I got some great support on this board, and I know you will too.

I didn't say anything originally because although I've done it all over the decades - from simple retakes, to biopsies, to ultrasounds and more biopsies, to the full cancer deal and could have given various levels of "advice", you were already getting great advice from a lot of wise women.

The internet has created many problems, but getting help when there is none to be had IRL, can be a real blessing. Having gone through some of my incidents prior to the web, I can tell you that being able to find someone knowledgeable to talk you off the ledge of worry, was WAY harder back then.

I'm so glad you got good support here, and even more glad that it was nothing. :)

I am so glad you got the all clear Begonia! I totally understand your fear, I felt the same way. I had the exact same outcome-it was absolutely nothing. I literally sat there shaking and wondering how I was going to rearrange everything I had going in my life at the time. Afterward, I felt relief and anger, that they could do that to me for nothing. There has to be a better way.
I decided, for me I was going to change my diet-going super low carb and completely getting rid of sugar. There is evidence that cancer feeds on sugar. Even complex carbs, which are glucose molecules linked together in a long chain, are broken down in our bodies as glucose. This quells my fear a little bit that I am being as pro-active as I can.

So glad to hear this! I'm sorry you went through all of the emotions of a call back. I look forward to a day when they are able to get accurate scans the first time.
