Mammogram & Ultrasound

So today was the big day. I went in for my Mammogram and Ultrasound this morning.

I drive up to this big building and I pull into the parking structure where I had to drive all the way up to the top to park. As soon as I walk into the Breast Care Center I have this feeling come over me. It's kinda hard to explain. I felt sadness for myself and a little scared. So as I walk in to see a lot of older woman who are bald from Chemo and a lot of older woman who are their for testing as well. I take the elevator with other woman up to the 2nd floor where I was going to have my testing done. I walk into the office and immediately everyone looks at me...everyone. I needed a sign that had said "yes, I'm young and, yes I'm having a Mammo"! or something like that. Anyways, It was weird...and uncomfortable. The whole thing is just weird.

So they call me back and tell me I need to undress...I wore a strapless dress so I could just take my bra off....My idea was genius! So then I wait...with other half naked woman...in a room. Once again...weird. They finally call my name where she has tons of questions for me and I in turn have tons of questions for her....of course hers were by far more important than mine..ha! The whole thing was over in about 10mins. AND...PAINLESS!!! YES!

Then she has me sit...again....Another tech calls me into the Ultrasound room where she does her test.

So in the end they did find the lump I was complaining about and the Pathologist is recommending I see a Surgeon. I'm worried. But, I know I will be ok..whatever the outcome is I'm fine with. I'm actually not nervous if I do have cancer. It's my path. I have a very supportive family and I know we will all be fine ;)
