This is good news
This is good news to hear.I'm Happy for your report.A little over a year ago I got that good news but the year before that was the Malignant. Had a another scare a few months ago but mammo and ultrasound showed nothing.

I know you will always keep up with your mammos.I've had benign breast tumors since I was 20 now 65.Of all the 45 years of tumors I only missed one mammo or doctor's appt.I was faithful all those years and had doctors who monitered me made sure I came in. The one office called me annually to schedule.

I've been closely tracked since I was 35
My first mammo was in my mid-30s, and I've had them annually since. Dr.s were always finding questionable lumps and bumps, so I was sent to a breast surgeon for tracking way back when... She's wanted "professional paws" on me every 6 months, with my mammo annually. (My gyn took the Spring exam; surgeon took the fall mammo and exam.)

Over the years, I've had several extra appointments for issues, and had a needle aspiration bx about 9 years ago in my left breast. This is the first time that things looked to be getting really ugly (and my post-op breast IS really ugly!)

My mom has had breast cancer in both breasts, tho late onset (ages 75 and 78. She's 95 now.) We're keeping a close eye on me.

And of course, I freaked out everyone in the family with my dx of metastatic appendix cancer 5 years ago.

I hate being the in cancer community, but we do meet the nicest people here. I knew that everyone would understand what I was going through.

THANK YOU TO EVERYONE!
