    It's 3 PM here and I'm ready to go to bed. I guess some of the drugs my doc. gave me for this lump/tumor are making me tired. As soon as I unload these kiddies I'm off to bed. Good Night Ladies!

    What does it mean when someone says BIRADS?

  • patoo

    Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System (BIRADS) score. This indicates the radiologist's opinion of the absence or likelihood of breast cancer.

    P2, I was thinking the exact same thing.

    Where is "In him and through faith in him we may approach God with freedom and confidence" this morning?  (Since she was already abbreviated, I un-abreviated her.)

    I have not been posting for awhile. Back to work (school), have a wonderful class.  You've got to love the little ones!  It's so easy for them to love you-I was walking another teacher's kindergarten class to recess one day, one of her little boys asked me "where are you taking us?" (he was little concerned, not knowing me) I told him to the field for recess, he got a big smile and said "Yay! I want you for my teacher!" Just got to love 'em..It's been nice to return to work and put BC back in the closet and not think about it so much-Although I have been checking in and thinking of you all.just haven't had time to post.

    My kids are at a back to school dance tonight, as soon as we go pick them up  it's bedtime for me.

    Paulding, I do hope the pain have lessened and you are feeling better.

    Hope everyone else is well, have a good nights sleep!!!!

    Thanks for the abbr. list, I still consider myself a newbie even after a biopsy, lumpectomy, and a  mastectomy with a DIEP Flap (July 1, 2010). I should have checked this out 3 1/2 months ago when I was diagnosed with MPBC in May!  I have learned so much about this beast since then. My motto is "better late than never!" Laughing

    Sweet dreams & gn!

    Well PM, I might have a good week but it would probably be better if you shared your stash!  Did your children recognize your alter-ego?  Wink

    Welcome M_Dawn - it's never too late to learn.  Sorry you had to join this sisterhood but wish you the easiest of this journey.

    Night friends.

    Nmi, hope your first day back was fun.  22 little ones - my hat's off to you (and all teachers everywhere)

    Nice to see you here seyla. 

    My eyes are closing early for some reason.  But it's good as I'm off all meds (except arimidex) until after my colonoscopy Friday so no pain meds, supplements for joint issues, sleep aids, , etc. at all. 

    Night friends.

    Morning...Afternoon everyone.

    I made my follow up CT appointment this morning for next Wednesday, and have a GP visit on Monday afternoon, so I will delay making the other appointment until I know where I stand with those.  At least I made one appointment already.
