I may be just overworried, and I'm not trying to be, but I could use some good thoughts.
I had an annual appointment last Friday. All seemed to be okay except one thing. A few weeks prior I was having some pretty significant pains in my left breast and noticing some change. I talked to my doc about it and she wanted me to go have an ultrasound done today - given the proximity of the pain a mammo would have been a bit difficult to do. I have to be totally honest - I'm terrified!!! I know others have been too and things have turned out fine. She also told me it could be cysts which do run in my family. But since my mom passed away from breast cancer, it has done nothing but sit in the back of my mind as to when I will be diagnosed. I know - a sad way to live life. I try not to think about it but once these pains started I got actually pretty scared.
I should know the results on Friday when I go to see her for a brief consult and then we will go from there, obviously. Last year about this time I had a couple of lumps that we were watching but they diminished and were due to the pills I was taking (they made me blow up like a balloon basically and everything was retaining water).
Thanks - I'll keep you all updated.
