Try not to worry. Easily said but not done , I know. I had a callback 2 years ago and they told me the vast majority of callbacks ended up being nothing. The waiting is very difficult and here where I am the wait times are quite long. There are no mammograms, ultrasound and needle biopsy same time, never mind same month! Please let us know how things work out. Fingers crossed it will be nothing.
I pray and meditate. We have many scares in our family so we get checked regularly. Cancer runs in the family. All we can do is take it moment by moment. Sending good vibes your way.
Chouette22 - You know, men can be clueless at times. My husband is the same way and sometimes I just want him to listen and not say anything. I guess your hubby was trying to reassure you and stay positive, just like mine. Men aren't emotional like we are and mine is more analytical minded.
Glory, Catseye, Ledonna, Jane, Cerinda - Thanks for your inputs and you ladies ROCK!! I'm staying positive and we'll see what happens on Monday. I'll be in touch.
I will be thinking about you. I know this is hard. I have done it several times. One thing to remember though the statistics are high on being called back. There was actually a story here the other night that there are more call backs in October due to the fact that it is breast cancer awareness month. Something to think about.
Sending you lots of good thoughts. The waiting is so difficult.
I also have dense breasts, and I've started paying the extra $100 to get 3-D mammograms. When I used to get regular mammograms, I'd always get called back. I've never been called back after a 3-D mammogram.
I'm another one with dense tissue and my doctor jokes that I'm a "cyst-maker" so I totally understand. Each year I go through this and part of me says "oh, it's just the same old call back," and another part of me is steeling myself for bad news. It will be ok. I'm sending good vibes that all is fine!
This type of thing has happened to me all the time on several fronts. Distract yourself when it is in your head. Also, it always helped me to think that there was nothing that I could do or plan without info. So everything was normal right now: today. Finally, this is the best place on earth to have something happen. Tell yourself you are grateful for that. Wishing you the best !!!!!!
