| It's Just a CYST! |
| Friday, November 2, 2007 |
Thank you for all your thoughts and prayers. This week has definitely been a roller coaster ride for me. I went to the doctor for an ultrasound yesterday, and the lump on my breast is nothing more than a cyst. We aren't going to do anything about it for now...we'll revisit it in 3 months.
In the mean time, I finally got my other surgery scheduled. I will have the skin cancer removed on Monday, November 12th. If they get it all, then I will have plastic surgery on Wednesday, November 14th. If not, they will go back in on Wednesday instead, and go for a second round.
By doing it this way, we do run the risk of not getting it all the first time, but it is the least invasive procedure available, which means in the process of cutting out the skin cancer, they will cut out the least amount of healthy tissue in the process. Considering I am not one of those girls whose breast are large, I prefer they leave me with as much as they can! :)
So, great news yesterday! If anything, this has woken me up to paying attention to the changes in my body. 6 months ago I probably wouldn't have given that cyst a second thought, and the skin cancer has been there for years.
So in my honor...if you have any lumps, skin lesions, or anything that just doesn't look or feel right...go get it checked out! If it's nothing, we the blog world will celebrate with you!Labels: cancer |

I've come to the conclusion that we are just lumpy people...at least it's just a cyst and probably won't have to be removed.
And how sweet of you not to schedule surgery on my b-day -- you went for the day before & after. Thanks for thinking of me. ;o)

The sisters are lumpy people. Hmm. Great! Only a cyst. I didn't know thats how you spell cyst. I totally would've screwed that word up.

Aww, sorry I didn't wish you luck and stuff the other day. :( I'm glad you're ok though. I hope they get all the cancer in one go.
I'm lumpy too. It's scary stuff. *blushes*

Sorry I wasn't here for your prayer request. I'm glad things have turned out well for you.
I actually followed a referral link here and saw that you are linked to my site, so I just wanted to say thanks.

I hope all goes well and it is good that you are just a "lumpy" kind of gal.
