Liz, LOL - perfect timing for me (THANKS!!) - I just phoned Highlands Breast Imaging yesterday, after receiving a letter in the mail that I was due for my yearly check up. This year, they have a NEW machine - something about "high tech digital"......... I also have to get an ultrasound (after finding out about the melanoma) - this way they can get a clearer view of the lymph nodes under my arms......(fun, fun, fun).
All joking aside, ladies - please dont take this lightly. Its not that bad (LIZ - lol) and it can save your life. I know a couple of women who had small cysts in there breasts that were detected by the mammogram and they caught them in time.
Especially after 40 yrs old or if hereditary, most definately call and make an appt. it could save your life.
Gotta go - seeing my shrink today (more fun!!).
Hope everyone has a great day. Its beautiful here in FL today. Cool and crisp air outside and not a cloud in the sky.
Love,
Marie

Hi Guys;
Not that this compares, because it doesn't. But...
2 weeks ago I had a vasectomy. The urologist couldn't find the vaz in either of my nuts....all the blood vessels were in the way...he was prodding and yanking...I just crossed my legs at my desk here re-thinking the whole episode. It reminded me of when I was a Little League catcher and got hit "down there" with a baseball (wasn't wearing my cup naturally).
But then I remembered being there for the birth of my son and I know that men have got it easy.

Just a thought for you ladies. I am very prone to cysts in my breasts, I go for Mammo's 2ce a year. I started a regimen of Evening Primrose Oil and Vitamin E and have found that it has greatly reduced the fibrocystic-ness of my breasts and has eliminated alot of the pain I was having.
One of the local Dr's did a study and found that this combo has helped many of us ladies with the cysty breasts.

Hi Marie,
Good luck to you , lol,
Tina, No appointment yet. They still haven't called me back so guess I'll have to call them again.
Jim that is funny really. I remember going with my ex for him to have that done. He was upstairs and I was downstairs in the waiting room. I can still hear him screaming, LOL. This was a young doctor, very young and think that was his first patient. LOL...But the swelling when he got home, never seen those so big. Size of grape fruits. He was in pain for over a week. Lots of ice, LOL...That's right, I find it funny. I said it happened to my ex...
Love,
Liz

Go figure Liz. In the past month I've had a root canal and the vasectomy. Could have had pills easily. Actually the doctor gave me a script for pills after I told him no narcotics. He insisted and said "just in case". Wtf! I handed the script to my wife.
In all honesty I didn't need them. I've gotten by just fine with ibuprofen.
