Okay everybody, listen up.

How do I put this?
The ultrasound showed a rather solid mass in my right breast. The previous time they did one two years ago, they called it a water cyst. The difference is whether it bounces the sound waves or lets them pass through. This was a very obvious round white blob.
::sigh::
Now, the doctor said that it isn't necessarily cancer, BUT if it is, they caught it early. They are going to schedule me for a 'guided biopsy' going in through a tiny slit and using ultrasound as their window to get a small chunk of it. Outpatient situation.
I have no history of breast cancer in my family so that's a point in my favor. Still.... as the doctor said, it's small enough that it could be a solid cyst. It's in a different position than the previous 'water cyst' (that was right behind my nipple and difficult to get a good picture) so if it is the same one but has migrated somehow.... then we're good.
I am predicting the worst case scenario of course, but what may actually happen is they do (what my boss at the fabric store jokingly calls) a 'lumpectomy'. Go in, get it out, get on with life.
So, that's my big news.... possibly life changing event here. I forgot to ask if I could get on the scale while I was there! Dang.

They nurse from scheduling will be calling me back no later than Monday to see what days and times are available for the procedure. Both jobs will be understanding and supportive during all this. I have ample medical coverage at the nursery, my concern at the fabric store is shift coverage but she just hired two new women so there's people there.
See how I am? I'm more worried about the effect my absence will have on my job more than what it will do with my life.

That's me. More updates when they happen.
