Ok, ladies i got my results back from my MRI and x-ray of my hip...good news first...My hip is good, joint pain now on a daily dose of aleve...MRI did not come back so good...It found an eraser size spot in my right breast right behind the nipple...of course they tell me its nothing to worry about, its doesn't have characteristics of cancer, but "were going to do an utrasound just in case"  I wonder why they don't just do ultrasound regardless, it seems that they always come back to an ultrasound.  I'm scared and worried, but don't want everyone around me to worry too... I just want to scream...between,mri's, x-rays, ultrasounds,  vaginal ultrasounds, colposcopies, hips and heavy periods, i sort of feel like its just a waiting game...just a matter of time...does anyone feel this way?  sorry for being a downer, just feeling sorry for myself tonight... 

thanks all for listening!

Navy - pleased to hear your news.

Moe - I hope you get the all's clear soon! It is awful to be in that place of fear, waiting for the other shoe tp drop. When will you get your US? Deep breath...

moe0279

I will get the ultrasound next Thursday...sleep seems to be my best way to deal.... Thanks obxk

Once upon a time, in a land far away, a beautiful, independent, self assured princess happened upon a frog as she sat, contemplating ecological issues on the shores of an unpolluted pond in a verdant meadow near her castle. The frog hopped into the princess lap and said "Elegant Lady, I was once a handsome prince, until an evil witch cast a spell upon me. One kiss from you, however, and I will turn back into the dapper, young prince that I am, and then, my sweet, we can marry and setup housekeeping in castle with my mother, where you can prepare my meals, clean my clothes, bear my children, and forever feel grateful and happy doing so."
That night, the princess had frog legs seasoned in a white wine and shallot cream sauce in her dinner.

That made me LOL Bernie!!!

moe - we all hope they're right - nothing to worry about. I'm glad they're taking it seriously though and not "keeping an eye on it" to see if anything changes. I know the waiting will be difficult. If it helps, we're all waiting with you!

moe0279

Thanks journey!  I know that i have all you wonderful ladies to help me get thru these next days...I always come back to you and you all give me a since of relief!

Moe: It sounds like the best news that it's not in your hip and it sounds like if this is nothing to worry about in your breast then hopefully the US will put your mind at ease.  If not, you CAN do this and you already have.  Hang in there Hun and sleep all you need and then wake up and scream too. 

Bak: Welcome back, you were missed.

NavyMom:  HAPPY DANCE for you. 

NavyMom

Moe, the waiting does suck...hang in there, you are not alone.

I would like to say thanks again to all of your happy wishes for my good news.  And just so ya know.  I did do some happy dancing.  Dh and I have been taking ballroom dance lessons for the past five years.  Last night we moved the coffee table and the throw rugs and did a little dancing in the living room.  Was a nice night.  And feeling  very grateful.

  Keeping those fighting the fight in my heart and always hanging on to hope for healing.  I hate cancer with my entire being.

Trying to mentally prepare for DS deployment.  He asked me to do him a favor......Keep my shit together so I can support DIL.  Reasonable request but, Not sure how I will keep smiling while his plane leaves, but will give it my all.  He has never been the kind that asks for much.  He has no idea what a tall order this is.

Hopex3

Moe, I know it's hard to wait like this but I bet if they thought it was really serious, they would have had you in for the Ultrasound by now!



I'm hanging in there with ya.

Navymom - I love the picture you painted, of you and your husband dancing. I can just see it.

I don't even want to imagine how hard it is going to be, watching your son leave. Lean on us, we're here for you.

F*^% ing neulasta shot today. So glad I remembered that I can only tolerate 1/2 dose, because no one else did. DH did a great job of nurse!

borntosurvive

Navymom: my heart is aching for you to have to watch your DS go off in that plane.  So often we forget about the families who make sacrafices when their love ones are deployed.  I could never hold it together.  I would try my hardest until he was out of sight and then just tell him later I did........your family is amazing and what a brave son you have.  I will be there holding your hand and I will sneak you the odd kleenex too. 

I am off for our family "new years" and DH's birthday weekend tomorrow.  I will mark my 1 year of diagnosis on Sunday with my favourite 3 boys (2 small and 1 big) in my life, in a bunk bed suite, surrounded by their smiling faces and amazing hugs.  I will check in on Monday.  Love to you all oxoxo

Cocker_Spaniel

NavyMom - Because your dear son doesn't ask for much you will do this for him even if you fall apart after.  He must love you very much to trust you with the care of his wife, not many men can do that for one reason or another.  He will go knowing that she is in your good hands and that will put his mind at ease.  And he will be home again before you know it. Big hug and thinking of you. Annie  

Tazzy

Navymom: Give you son a huge hug from me here in Canada.  Sunday is remembrance day and I am so glad it is recognised so well here.   We owe them and future military so much.   Thank you.

I am burnt, cranky and tired so going to bed to watch a movie... tomorrow is another day AND I have to keep focusing - only 2 nukes left.  WOOOOO HOOOOOO !!

positive healing hugs, love and thoughts to you all xxxx

Tazzy congrats on almost being done with rads.  Remembrance Day is a holiday where I work.  Since it falls on a Sunday this year, we get to take Monday to observe the holiday. My grandfather was a veteran.

Hi everyone,

This is my first post here. May I join your group? I am also TN and just finished the second radiation treatment of I think 33. I am trying to figure out this site right now, and found this thread...YAY!

BernieEllen

Welcome loveofcritters.  

borntosurvive

Welcome loveofcritters, we're happy to have you (although sad you had to join......you know what I mean)

journey4life

welcome loveofcritters - you'll find plenty of knowledge, support, humor and love here. Also, the list of abbreviations we use on BCO will be very helpful for you. If I knew how to post a link, I would. Maybe someone else will so it'll be easy for you to find.

navymom - I cried when I drove away that first time I left my son at college! I can't imagine watching him leave for deployment. When the day comes, wrap your arms around your DIL and cry all you want to. It'll be a moment both of you will share and she'll realize you can turn to each other in the days, weeks and months ahead.

luv and inmate - hope you're feeling good today. I think of you often and send healing vibes to you every day!

born - I also have a cancerversary tomorrow (11/11). What a year its been...  Enjoy your weekend with your loved ones.

tazzy - hang in there, you're almost done!
