    Anne,  How are you?  I, too, will do genetic counseling (at JHU) next month.  I am hoping this will help me with the Tamoxifen decision.  Already a bit worried about my mammogram in August--this will be the first one after my abnormal mammo that sent me on the road to multiple biopsies.  Hard to put it in perspective right now.

    Misty,

    I have my first mammogram in August after my diagnosis and lumpectomy in Feb.  I am just trying to enjoy my summer and worry about the mammo in August. How are you doing?

    Hey Kimber, How are you?  I am generally doing well.  I realize I should not be worried about the mammo coming up--but I find myself thinking about it often.  My husband keeps telling me that this is something I must learn to live with--and I know he is right.  I'm just not there yet but I keep trying!  Otherwise, the kids keep me very busy and that's a good thing!

    It's expensive, relatively so....but try the Lindt lindor dark chocolate balls.  Threw the package out, they are individually wrapped, but they might be bon-bons?  I'll look next time I get a bag, but oh my!  They are my enticement to riding! :D

    Good luck with the mammo's ladies.  I had a scare already in mar/april after 2 months off chemo!  Although they only did mammo and U/S, they say it's all clear.  Ridge of some sort, although I didn't think ridges got larger.....we'll see in the fall I suppose :(

    AMEN to that!

    Then again, without it, I wonder how much more we'd worry? :(

    Thanks Misty!  I'm checking it out now!  Hope this isn't a site that shares your info!  Gosh I hate a ton of junk mail :( I'm sure it's not, or 1) you wouldn't have sent and 2) I'd not have signed up! :D

    Thanks again!
