oh Angie! I'm sorry. I hope it doesn't hurt and I hope it's nothing - just the doctors being extra careful with you.

Let us know how it goes.

Hugs

Is the appt on Wed for a biopsy or a consultation?  I hope all goes well for you.   Yes, I know that feeling you mention (that your body has betrayed you.)  Hang in there!
Hugs and prayers,
Cheryl

Thx WildThing  ;D. I love painting critters the most.

Kathy thank you so much.. I just picked up my mammo report because I'm curious and it had a word on it I didn't care for at all... Pleomorphic.  A cluster of small pleomorphic calcifacations ... Praying it's much ado about nothing :)

He asked when I wanted to do it and I said ASAP and he said well that would be Monday bec I have a cancellation.  So I took it Kathyx :).

I am suffering already this evening and can just imagine what the surgery will make me feel like... I hope my family doesn't dump me somewhere :)

Angie, I had a lumpectomy 5 years ago and radiation.  At my last mammogram and appt with my cancer doc, we both thought there was problems back "yonder" where the incision is.  To make it even harder I think anyhow, it's under my arm.  I had a needle biopsy and it was scar tissue.  That was a couple of months ago and I'm still a little nervous about "that area."  I think I'll go back to my cancer doc and have her do another exam.  Lucy

PS  Yours will also be b9......
