Way back in January, when I had my mammogram and they biopsied the lump on the right, they also saw some small spots on the left.
Spots are normal, especially if they're small, so nobody was concerned about it.
My surgeon wanted a second look, just to be sure, so I went back over and had another scan done on the left side. Again, nothing to worry about.
Given my family history, and the fact that I was about to start cancer treatment, they decided we should have another look in about six months.
Monday was the day.
(It's cute how careful and kind all the technicians are when they know you're not there for your average every-day annual scan.)
Because this was specifically to check up on previous images, they had to be sure to position me exactly as they had before. They also had the images from January up on the screen to compare it to in real time.
They made me wait while they discussed what they could see.
Everything looks just like it did before. No changes.
The images were sent to my surgeon so she could have a look as well. She agrees with the folks at UVRMC - nothing has changed.
We'll take another look in six months. Can't be too careful about stuff like this.
I am so grateful to have so many excellent care-givers on my team.
