Trying to stay positive

Rough week....hematologist told me to get ultrasound of breast after examinine. Breast could be hormonal. Not necessarily early on breast cancer. But, my sister had breast cancer. And then she called me later to tell me to see a nephrologist for my high creatinine levels. Got an appt for both. One is on the day my mom died 43 years ago. Ugh! Maybe she is looking out for me.

Thank you everyone. Mammo and ultrasound Friday. Breast cancer very high where I live. Want to get my family out of here. I have 2 daughters. My husband doesnt get it. I am locked into a 10 year job I just started to be vested for health insurance though. Maybe i should just move to Canada. Lol.

LOL, good luck with your ultrasound Natura, We would love you in Canada, but it's the same game here. Ultrasounds are a good tool to point them in the right direction. :)

All the best

Mammo and ultrasound didn't work out on Friday. I got to the lab, and they told me since my prescription said diagnostics, they couldnt do it because there were no doctors around. WTH....I was livid. Since, I am already a wreck about all this. I went by myself with no support. And I had to take personal time which I have very little of, amd trying to save for picking my kids up from school. Never heard of such nonsense. Especially since one persone told me when they took over the other lab, they didnt get all the old mammos. So, mine was lost. But, then the supervisor said she could get them. I tell ya, I am not interested in going back to that company. I told the supervisor, next time they make an appt for someone, they should get the prescription faxed to their office, so this doesnt happen again. I talked to my chiropractor, and I am not interested in getting a mammo. Probably why I am having problems becasue of the the xrays from all the mammos I have had. Really angry about all this still.

Not what you're looking for?
