Today was my first 3 month check-up with the oncologists. I had to have a mammogram as well as blood work done prior to my doctor's appointments today. While the mammogram was a bit unnerving, everything was clear and normal! I'm so glad to have that behind me.
What unnerved me was that I was asked to stay for an ultrasound after finishing the mammogram. Now, the last time this happened was 9 months ago, and you know the rest of that story. So there was a lot of scary deja vu as I laid there in the ultrasound room. But it was simply to be thorough and absolutely sure there was nothing hiding behind my surgical scar.
My next check-up is in December with the oncologist, and the next mammo is in 6 months. It's time to stop worrying and move forward!
Hooray!!!!!!!!! This is great news!
ReplyDeleteSo happy for you! I'm sure you will be breathing very easily now that this is behind you.
I would have been really unnerved, too, about the ultrasound (I'm a major worrier, so "freaking out" would probably be where I was). Sounds like it might have helped if they had told you ahead of time that an ultrasound would probably be included. However, so glad it's done and all clear! Megan
