    Sandy, not inappropriate. I

    Sandy, not inappropriate. I'll take a dense nipple over a nodule any day. Let's hope! Lobbyist, that's what I'm hoping too. Thanks so much. Allochka, it was in the left lung but upper lobe. Go figure. That's obviously gone. That too was discovered via x-ray in 2004 and so they sent me for the CT scan. I'm hoping this too turns out to be nothing. I'm still waiting for damned request from Sloan so I go and schedule the CT appointment here. I'm going to call them today and ask what's taking it.

    S...t, I was almost sure it would be the same nodule. But as you see, it does happen and mean nothing sinister. I hope this would be the case again. You'll get through this !

    I agree with Alla, if your

    I agree with Alla, if your doctor thought that it could possibly be anything of concern, he would never had said to wait a year in the beginning.  And we really don't know what he is thinking, he might be concerned that you have an infection or something far less scary than what our minds immediately go to.

    That's what I keep hoping.

    That's what I keep hoping. That he would never have thought to wait a year if he suspected something. So I'm hoping he's just making sure he's on top of things just in case. I'm so greatful for the poeple here. I can always count on you to talk me off the ledge.
