Time for a check
Image from GoogleI will be the first to admit that even after being told for years that I should check my breasts, I don't. Or that should be I didn't.
After visiting my MIL (who is recovering from radiotherapy after her breast cancer op)back in October I promised her that if I was ever worried about any lumps, bumps or changes I would go and get them checked out. Who would have thought that a week after getting home I would have a lot of pain in my left boobie? I duly trogged off to the doctor who said she thought it was Fybrocystic disease but would send me for a mammogram anyway.
To cut a long story short. One mammogram and one ultrasound later and everything is OK. The doctor had told me that "Pain is good" so I wasn't too worried that it would be anything too serious but it doesn't stop you worrying yourself to death for two months!!
So ladies -Go get them checked. :0)
Very glad all is okay. xx

ReplyDeleteGreat news Liz - glad everything went ok and what a great start to 2011 for you x
ReplyDeleteOh sweetie I am so happy that all is well.....I kind of thought that is what was happening today.
ReplyDeleteI had absolutely no pain with my lump and even when I had a mastectomy there was hardly any pain at all, strange eh! Now check your breast every month okay, if BC is found early it is so curable.
.......:-)Hugs
Glad everything is ok. My Mum had breast cancer discovered during a routine screening, luckily it was early and they were able to treat it. It's well worth checking, although I don't always remember myself.
