[QUOTE="Stress Bunny, post: 631430, member: 4855"] Thanks everybody. It helps posting and receiving support. I haven't spoken to either a physician or the radiologist yet. My family doctor is on vacation this week, and the technician shared the radiologist's advisement to have the biopsy. So the technician and a nurse are the only professionals I've spoken with about this. I will be seeing the surgeon this week, so I hope to get more questions answered then. I am very hopeful that all will be well and that if it is cancer it will be early (hopefully) and treatable at this point. I have had some bad luck with other female health issues, so that is haunting my thoughts. But I am an otherwise healthy person. I am very slim and training for a half marathon, so I run 5 - 12 miles per day. My blood pressure and cholesterol are great, and I don't drink, smoke, or use any medications. I eat healthy food. I always get a perfect score on my health risk assessment at work. Though I am rarely ill with a cold or flu, I seem to be plagued with some neurological and immune issues, such as endo, migraines, gluten sensitivity, tinnitus, fatigue, transient skin rashes, and other things. I have had skin cancer as well, even though I never go for tanning. I am doing alright today, and believe it or not, this site's mantra of the serenity prayer is really helping me cope. I cannot change whether or not I currently have cancer cells, but I am doing everything needed at this point. Worrying and fretting are not helpful, so I can let go of the control I am trying to muster over that which is not controllable. Thanks again, everyone. I'll keep you posted. [/QUOTE]
