Thank you so much for the support everyone! Last night I finally broke down and that is why I posted this message. I stayed strong to tell my family, then reality hit me. I was so looking forward to a good visit and for him to tell me that everything looked good, so I was really disappointed... and I also just down right scared. The doctor told me that it may be nothing, but we have to make sure with my history. I go for the next test on May 9th. I will keep you all posted. Thank you so much for the positve thoughts and prayers, it means more than you know!!! I am at work so can't stay for long. I will catch up on posts this evening when I get home. Hope everyone is doing well and thank you again for all the wonderful thoughts and prayers!!!

Lou, I just had a thought. Maybe you have some benine fibrocystic breast changes going on due to the hysterectomy, especially if you are on some type of HRT? It is quite possible, as this is common in women who have had hysterectomies and/or on HRT. Regardless, know that you have much support and lots of prayers being sent on your behalf. Hope this eases your mind. You are doing an amazing job. Your stats is proof!

Hi Lou! My thoughts are also with you!! A very close friend of mine has also gone through the same thing that you are. She has educated herself thoroughly and has come across some great support groups! If you would like me to get any information for you, just let me know! I'm usually logged in to the IM daily during the week. Keep a stiff upper lip, kiddo!!! We're here for you!!!

Lou, I have had a similiar scare and Sparky is right, the fear is overwhelming. I will say a prayer for you. Stay strong and keep the quit!!

I really don't know what to tell you, but I have been in the same situation and the fear is overwhelming. That being said, you have quit smoking and your health today is far better than it was, so it will be ready to fight for you if need be. Be grateful that you have a doctor that checks everything. I guess what I would suggests is some quite time, meditation and deep breaths and trust in you higher power. You will and do have all the support this site can offer. You will be in my prayers and I will hold good thoughts for you.
