Today I had a mammogram and an ultrasound.
They found a lump and a swollen lymph node. They scheduled me for a biopsy on Dec 5th.
I took a couple of the Sisters for support.

Hmmmmm?
I had a diabetes check today with my regular doctor and told her about the lump and wanted to know if I had been scheduled yet for a mammo.
I do NOT like my regular doctor because she always makes me feel like.... my complaints are not valid. She brushes me off and rushes me thru.
Turns out the form for the mammo had never been faxed to the mammography place. She wasn't concerned. She gave me the speech about not needing to have a mammo every year--just every other year. And not needing an annual pap smear any more and, hey, while we are at it.... you do not need to do self breast exams either.
Oh... and just be patient, They'd FAX the form for the mammo and it would be scheduled.
And now... more waiting....
