Test Results

(These are not my breasts, but a stock photo from the Mayo Clinic.)

When you find a lump, or when you are told by a physician that a lump has been found, it's scary. Even though you are pretty sure it's nothing, it's scary. Even though the breast surgeon tells you at your examination that it appears to be nothing, it's scary. And when you are having a mammogram and an ultrasound to determine whether your lump is cancerous, it's scary.

I am happy to report that the lump (actually two lumps) found in my right breast appear to be benign cysts. I have an appointment with the breast surgeon again tomorrow to go over the results and determine what, if anything, we will do about them.

If you have been praying for me, thank you!
