[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 639557, member: 1550"] Well, I was told right off that it's not life threatening. That helped. However, untreated, if it is any sort of problem at all, it could get life threatening. Believe it or not, with the first problem, mild through it was, I begged the doctor to get rid of both breasts because I figured if one was an issue the other would be too. Of course, he said no. But now I finally have t he doctors saying "No problem." Part of that is my severe anxiety disorder. They are going to tell my insurance company that it is way too stressful for me to go through a mammo every year and that this was the final straw, even if it all comes back normal. And it's not a lie. I do have anxiety disorder. It is far better than it was when I was, say, in my 20's and not able to control my anxiety at all, but it's still there and I am grateful to this team of professionals who care about my well being as well as my health. If there is some early stage cancer, I trust them.There is almost definitely nothing aggressive or advanced there. The team I have is just too wonderful for words and very good. There are so many amazing people in this world, aren't there? [/QUOTE]
