Please keep us posted, and know that we're all here for you if you need to vent, cry, talk...whatever.

I went for my second mammo and the ultrasound, and haven't heard a peep from anyone. My follow-up appointment with the doctor is Tuesday (right before I hop on a plane for a 3 day business trip to AZ). I'm hoping that their silence is a good sign....but I'll let you all know either way.

Tuesday, just around the corner. Silence is golden, tell them you want it in a 12 oz bar or a couple Krugerands.. Good luck.

It is very small, no mass and she ...said it is very early and there is a good chance it can come out with the biopsy. Strangely calm.

Good. Early is good. Cancer doesn't knock, so am glad you are doing the big stuff, and knocking it out. Check out the breast surgeons in your neck of the woods. Write, call, and scream anytime you wish. Get it out.
