I found a lump in my breast.......

What a relief to finally hear from you, I have been watching and waiting to hear how you were doing. I am one of those mothers that just go crazy if I don't know what is going on healthwise.

Please keep us informed. :)

I hope it's nothing serious!

When your breasts hurt a lot, especially before you get your period, it could be you have mastopathy. This also causes some lumps sometimes, but it's NO cancer, it's just painful. I have that too, for many years. BTW, I will also have a mammography on Tuesday!

Please let us know what the doctor says! I wish you a lot of luck, and please keep us informed!

im glad you're going to the docter. my dad had cancer surgery on thursday:(i just got back from seeing him and read your post. his got worse because he got misdignosed and it took forever for us to find out what it was anyways its better to go then be sorry

Cass..I don't mean to snicker, but everytime I look in the mirror and see what "father time" has done to me, I cringe :eek: Whatever happened to "perky?" I'm going to just have to call, Extreme Makeover!!! :D :rolleyes: You notice that "Father Time" is of the male persuasion..no female would EVER to that!! Anyway..when you call on Monday, make sure the girls on the other line do NOT give you the runaround. Make sure you tell them it is an EMERGENCY, cause I'll tell you what...I had to do that, truthfully, on a few occassiosn and there IS time to "fit you in", believe me. If you run into a problem, insist that the doctor call you back ASAP. it is not the girls' decision to make..I know they are just doing their jobs, but you'll have to be insistant!
Tray..Nope..no hormones. I decided that the change is a part of life and I can live with the hot flashes (running outside with no coat in winter and ice on my wrists and face, whilst jumping for joy.."spigots are OFF") I have enough problems without more pills, so I just bit the bullet and accepted it. After surgeries in the past, I was so happy, I didn't care! I love kids, but it wasn't meant to be, so that's OK to. My heart is full of love for my niece, furkids and my friends' kids and furkids. Whew!

K9karen, you are so right, Cass your young, hold on to that for as long as you can. K9karen, when you go for that extreme makeover,don't forget to throw my name in the hat, maybe they will pick both of us. I had a complete hysterectomy, and if I hadn't took my hormones, I probably would have had my husband killed.LOL. He always know when it time for my shot, I would just tell him, Jimmy, I hate you, and he would rush me to the doctors office to get the shot. I have started taking pills now, I am doing that for the safety of my husband.:D :D ;) ;)

Cass, you shouldn't be worried about how you look as I said above you have youth on your side. I am afraid I am on the other side of youth. With Three kids, and four grandkids, age seems to have caught up with me faster than I wanted it to.

You take care of yourself, and please keep us informed about what the doctor says. As you can see, you have so many here that really care about you. Always get your checkups, and don't put them off. :)

update please!;)

Yeah, we are still waiting over here for an update, where are you?? You better be at the doctors.;) :)
