AW: Mammogram OK!

[nicolewi]

I feel lighter today. A couple weeks ago, I had my second mammogram ever and got called back due to a suspicious area. I know this is common, and I know it's usually fine, but you can't help but start freaking out a little bit. It was kind of a stressful experience despite repeatedly telling myself it would probably be fine. I had my follow-up today, and luckily, everything is A-OK. Yippeee!

That's great! I've only had 2 mammograms so far, and both times they did an ultrasound at the same appointment because I have a spot which I'm certain is something like scar tissue but which they wanted to double-check anyway (I fell and landed right on that spot when I was pretty young, like 13-14-ish and there been a little lump there ever since). It's a great feeling to get the all-clear!

I got the same callback yesterday. I'm freaking out a bit. I'm glad everything checked out ok

[nicolewi]

erbear, I hope yours is fine as well! It's definitely a weird feeling, even though the odds are overwhelmingly in your favor. Good luck.
