Unhappy More Surgery

Some of you know that I had breast cancer last year and had more calcifications show up on my Mamo in Feb and they did a steriotactic biopsy. I think he did it this way because he knew my bariactric surgery was coming up and he wanted a quick check for cancer. But I had another diagnostic Mamo on Monday and today I found that there was actually two calcifications in there and they didn't get all of the first one in the last biopsy. So I have to go back in for a wire guided inscisional. So they are going to cut me again.. sheesh.. I don't know if it will be on the same incision from last year or if it will be a new one. And then I get to wait again to get my test results, I really am getting to the point of telling them if they are that worried just take it off. Because in my heart I know that in the end sooner or later that is what is going to happen. I didn't have clean margins last year so I know I have pre-cancer cells in my whole breast anyway.. Sorry but I needed a little vent time. I am going to aerobics in a bit and I will keep you updated. I know I have not been on much but I have been kind of depressed and well busy.. sheesh can the two co-exist??.

Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

Bless your heart Lisa. I know you have been though alot in the past year alone that we have known you. We are here to support YOU anytime you need. I understand the scare of the incision and what ifs very well. Depression and busy do go hand and hand. Take care my friend.

((((HUGS)))) I'm sorry hun. Maybe thinking about taking it off might be best, but it's a huge decsion. Have you talked to your doc about it or is this something you don't want to consider that at this time? I hope everything goes well and keep us updated!

Lisa~ I"m praying for you. So many people going through so many similar things with cancer. This may sound awful but.. hey.... maybe you can get a boob job that insurance WILL pay for. Just trying to look on the bright side.

My husband has Lymphoma and is going for his 6 month recheck this week after being in remission since December so don't think I take cancer or cancer scares lightly. Just finding some humor in a serious situation.
