Nothing To Worry About...

There appears to have been a bit of a discrepancy between the letter I received concerning my mammography and the report sent to my doctor. The doc says there is nothing to worry about...Although I am relieved about that, and the fact that she feels no further evaluation is necessary, I really must tip my hat to the nurses who responded to my calls, spoke to the doctor regarding the letter sent to me and contacted the imaging facility with regard to the letter to me and the report to my GP.

No further evaluation is needed as there is no evidence of cancer, so I will continue annual screenings.

Thanks to all of you who related your own stories and comments of concern. They were appreciated. My next adventure in diagnostic testing will be a colonoscopy. I hope that too is uneventful.

Until Next Time...

After Mammography: More Evaluation Needed

So says the letter I received today from the imaging facility that did my routine screening last week. I did attempt to contact my physician as the letter advised, but the clinic was closed. I have never had any findings from a mammography before. I hope this is nothing...

I hope everyone is having a good day.

Until Next Time...
