    Yes, but you can easily lose the ones you gain here by ironing.  Tongue out

    I find I can lose the weight gained here be reading about the food, because it is abbreviated.

    IRONING?!?!?!?!??! Here's my response via Erma Bombeck: " My second favorite household chore is ironing. My first being hitting my head on the top bunk bed until I faint."

    Well who is ready to be tucked in??  

    There's some stewed apple and custard for anyone who wants it - don't eat too much though or it will keep you awake.

    Nite all.

    I am going to enjoy the custard without any guilt.  If there is enough after everyone has had a serving, I think I might go back for more.  I am feeling good, exercised and relaxed.

    yes an sorry they tell me they found nothing but more test are needed an it was how they said it. I was so happy but still woundering why I was still in pain. They were like ( BUT WE NEED TO DO MORE TEST ). So what iam asking is you think they did find something but waiting to get more findings first befor they tell me.

    No, Amanda, I doubt that, but you have the right to ask for a copy of the report.  It has to say everything they suspect.  BUT, if they think there is a reason for your pain, they may want more tests even though they didn't find anything.

    I thought I might mention. I have a palpable lump around an area I had biopsied a year ago.  My GP felt it and sent me for an ultrasound as a first test.  Since there was nothing showing a solid mass, the lab did a mammo.  Although it also showed nothing solid, it is written  in the report that a MRI is recommended because of something that they did see that was questionable.  At least they are willing to keep going forward until they can rule out something.  MRi on Wednesday and I hope to hear that there is nothing abnormal.

    The pain you are feeling could still be a response to the surgery you had last year.  If there is a lump, you tend to feel it, and have drs feel it, and it can become tender quite easily.  You can also be in a point during your menstrual cycle which makes your breast tender anyway.  I will be praying that in your case you will get the best possible results.

    Thank you, dutchgirl.  I was hoping to let Jajuly know that extra testing doesn't always mean the big C, it can mean you have a thorough doctor.

    Meece I'll be thinking of you - these tests are always a bit nerve wracking I think. Go n-éirí an      t-adh leat!!

    Amanda - I hope all goes well for you. 

    Between 9th and 19th Jan always brings it all back to me - that was when it all happened for me!! Next Tuesday I have my annual mammo and I see my principal surgeon for my 2 year post dx & mx check up - I'm jittery already and I know that's just plain silly but I can't help myself.

    I think chocolate biscuits are in order!!!

    Enjoy!!

    I'm off to bed now!!

    Yummy!  Good thing I saw those after I just ate a big bowl of sauteed veggies or I would not be held responsible for other things going into my mouth. 

    Just passing by quickly.

    Meece, you are in my prayers.
