[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 639511, member: 1550"] Thank you all :) I should add, this is not life threatening right now. I just don't want to have to freak out about my boobs anymore and I will do just fine without both of them. Never was one of those women who felt I was "less than a woman" because I had a masectomy. Once I had Stage0 cancer in 1996 I asked for the mastectomy so I never had to fret over that breast every again. Most women choose lumpectomies, but I really wanted to part company with that breast. It was cystic, often painful, and made me nervous. Since then I have always freaked at my mammos in the other breast and until this year everything always came out completely fine. But this time did it. I'll be glad to put an end to mammos and boobs forever. Maybe I'm weird, but in this case I am glad to be weird...lol. I never want to have a mammogram again!!! ;) Appreciate the support! [/QUOTE]
