Sorry for being soooo late tonight, but I really do have a very good excuse, really!

Let’s go back about a week ago, actually six days…you don’t remember?
That’s alright since I do.
Even further back in the beginning of December while everyone else was shopping until they dropped I was trying to get approved to have my simple yearly mammogram, and when all was said and done the gal who held my approval in her hands went away on her vacation and told me that, I would be okay until after the first of the year.
And so I waited like so many of us do in similar situations and went to the phone with my approval in my hand to make my appointment and sure enough I took the first one available for last Friday January 6th.
The technician said that the doctor would have my results by Monday but due to our HIPPA laws here, for privacy they cannot give you negative results over the phone.
And so today I received that letter that states basically please make an appointment to come into our office as soon as possible we have to discuss the results of the test that you had on January 6th with you.
From experience I knew right away that this was NOT going to be good news, due to their policy and all, and so I called and made the appointment and they fit me in at five P.M. this evening, hmm also not a good sign…
And yep, it wasn’t and boy, this seems to happen to me every ten years, as I stated before, 1992, 2002 and now again 2012!
Lymph nodes though this time on each side and my right breast faint calcification densities, which are somewhat worrisome, and so it is recommended that they do Stereotactic guided needle biopsy, been there done that.
Is this a radiologist with a heart, ‘somewhat worrisome’ Gosh how nice of he/she to be concerned, hmm?

Any-who, I may not qualify for the program to have it done and as we all know I don’t have any insurance due to being PRE-EXISTING,! And that I am currently paying off other medical bills monthly!
The doctor was kind enough to give me the phone number of the supervisor nurse in charge of such things… only thing is she is the same one who gave me a hard time when I was trying back in October to get a hold of the doctor for my chronic sinus issues and she gave me a hard time and she never called me back!
Guess I am up a creek without that proverbial paddle, hmm?
Gosh, MS, cervical stenosis acting up, vitreous hemorrhage and now possible cancer?
All in less than a month, what fun, huh?
Actually most of the above has been ongoing but not being so miserable all at the same time!
HELP!
Will a complete melt down be far behind?
Nah, all those other (3) lumpectomies were benign, and that’s what this will be if I can get it…benign, benign, benign… MY new mantra!

On that loony as she ought to be, allow me to be the first to wish you all a very happy good night and ask you all to kindly count your blessings and share those overages and we will too!

And next time please be here or be square, ya hear!

PS I do know it could all be worse, bud dump bum, and it was…darn me… I feel that glass half empty coming into my view again… and that shoe in slow motion trying to drop again, PLEASE DON’T LET IT FOLKS!
