Everyone who needs prayers, lots of prayers and positive thoughts are going out to you.

I need some good vibes sent my way. I had my annual mammogram on Fri. Aug. 27th. Ever since my mom had breast cancer I've been having one annually. The lady who screened me had to reposition me 3 extra times because she wasn't able to get a good reading on me so I was squished 7 times instead of the usual 4. She said that if it didn't look as good as last years then I'd be called back.

Well they called me on Tues. because they said that they need to do further testing. I was just thinking that it was because the lady wasn't able to position me very well and get a good reading. I left work early today because we were very slow. I did some shopping before I came home. When I got home I had a message from my gynocologist and she told me that I would be called back in for further testing on my mammogram. She didn't want me to be scared but she didn't go into any details. She left her work number so that she could explain it more to me but of course she was gone by the time I got the message. I'll either try to e-mail her or call her tomorrow morning.

I got a card in the mail from Kaiser tonight telling me that my recent mammography showed a finding that requires additonal imaging studies for a complete evalution. Most such findings are benign (not cancer). The additional images will allow the Radiologist to see the area(s) in question better. It then said that I'll be contacted to schedule the necessary imaging studies. I go back in on Tues. Sept 7th at 9am. I sure hope that they don't find anything.
