Catching up

It has been a while since I have posted an informative blog... so here goes.

Well for my birthday I found out I was going to have a biopsy on my right breast. I kept it quiet from a lot of people, not because I was afraid, but because I was find with what ever the finding are going to be. I did not want to hear the people who have not been through it then decided they know exactly how I should be feeling. So the boobospy was scheduled for the week of spring break. The drama leading up to the procedure was more stressful than the procedure and wait time. I was sent to a place called Solis Women's Health care...I was not at all impressed with it. The first day I went I waited for 2 hours and due to the scheduling issue, so I had to go back on the following Tuesday...needless to say I was taking right in and did not have to wait.

Ok guys now if you are reading this, every time I mention something that was done to the 'girls' imagine it being done to your 'boys' and you will KNOW my pain!

So I go in, and put on the sexy shirt, that has strings but does not tie, because they are made for the perfect size 12. I get taken in to the ultrasound room to wait for the doctor. Now the weather was a little bad as it was raining that morning..well of course the doctor was not on time. My appointment was at 8:30, it was almost 9:00 before she got there. So we are starting the ultrasound, now this mass that was found was not in the breast tissue it was more so on the chest muscle, so she is looking in the tissue, I try to explain to her that she will need to go closer to the armpit...I DON'T HAVE A DEGREE SO I DON'T KNOW WHERE IT IS AT!!! Ok just to put something out there - I have had 2 radiologist, my reg doctor, and the surgeon do the exam and non of them could feel it. So it is not that big, and deep in the chest cavity. Anyways, she could not find it on the ultrasound off to another mammogram, for anyone who has had one, know they do them flat and then at a 45 degree angle, well I was also lucky enough to have one done at a 90 degree angle too...Now I don't have the most firm girls ever but if you recall the buzzard from the old cartoons, his beak is what my image looked like! No dice could not find it...so off the the table of terror. I walk into a room with a table about 8 foot long, and a hole in the middle of it...YEP the boob goes in there, and under the hole is a vice that squeezes the life out of it. After 8 pictures here they finally found it. So mark it and back to the mammogram room. The table of terror is where the boobospy took place. So it took them 2 hours to take pictures to find the little mass, the boobopsy only took about 40 minutes, and it all turned out OK. I went to the surgeon on Friday, and she does not see a reason to remove it now, so I will have another mammogram in about 6 months to monitor it. She did say I have fibroid breast disease, so the chance of them coming back or not...crazy human body!!

Thursday night the 25th was the Talent Show at Logan's school. Those kids ROCKED... I am going to try to get pictures put on this weekend. Logan sang If Tomorrow Never Comes by Garth Brooks. He wants to do something more upbeat next year.

So this lovely weekend we have been resting and cleaning. We have a birthday party today at Chuck E Cheese. Then some more rest. I bought some Whole Clove Garlic bread yesterday so I am thinking some bruchetta at some point today!
