Guest guest Posted May 29, 2008 Report Share Posted May 29, 2008 Oh, Joy, what a worry for you. Here's hoping it's just a cyst or a fatty lump.

Guest guest Posted May 29, 2008 Report Share Posted May 29, 2008 Joy, I have a mammogram once a year because of multiple cysts in my breasts and lumps under my armpits. I remember a dr telling me, if it hurts, it's not cancer because cancer doesn't hurt. (I had no comment at that time because I was speechless). Over here it takes about 6 months to year, for an appointment to have a mammmogram. I Hope Everything turns out to be fine...All the best with the Mammo...when I had it, my poor breasts got squashed lol! and I was totally bruised for about a month. I don't know why our bodies go through so much changes and it turns against us....we need to stay on top! We need to keep Up Our Strength!

Guest guest Posted May 29, 2008 Report Share Posted May 29, 2008 Joy....oh you are right about the dreaded lump! Let's just count on it being benign. I had a lump not long ago and it was ok. Felt really spooky though. You need a good visit with some family! Like on the 14th of June.... I can certainly recommend Optive for dry eyes. I've had this problem too for many years and finally, this over the counter really works for me! I feel like you do Joy. I have so many things wrong with me...I seldom leave the house...except for Dr. appt. where I am going now...Gastroenterologist. Later friend. MamaSher, age 69.IPF 3-06,NSIP 4-08.

Guest guest Posted May 29, 2008 Report Share Posted May 29, 2008 Joy, Oh what a time you've had.... enough is enough for you. I'm so sorry you are going through something new yet again. I will be praying for a good outcome for the biopsy and for the wisdom you'll need to decide about whatever treatment you may need. Wish I could give you a great big hug!

Guest guest Posted May 31, 2008 Report Share Posted May 31, 2008 Joy, I went through the same thing in January and it is so scary. After the second mammogram I had to have a biopsy and thank God, it was negative. I kept telling myself not to panic but it is so hard not to imagine the worst. Try not to worry too much and treat yourself to something special on the day of the mammogram-I will keep you in my prayers- --- joynoel3208 wrote: > Yesterday my doctor found a lump in my breast. > Actually, it's under my > nipple and inverts it.
