That sounds sucky! Im sorry you had to go through all that. The bewbs are sensitive sisters. I only had a needle core biopsy with ultrasound because my tits are too young and dense to have a mammogram. On account of my youthful age... (pfft) Kinda a good thing they didn't stick me in the mammo thing or my blood filled tumor would have burst and I would have hemorrhaged... according to my doctors. Super awesome!
So, give me a call today if you feel up to it. I know you're dealing with a lot. So if you don't feel like chatting don't worry about it, but I DO want to see how you're doing emotionally, physically or if you just need to complain about life the universe and everything. I'm here for youuuuu!
On a related but unrelated note... My oncologist is giving me water pills because I have bloated to crazy proportions from the weekly steroid given with my chemo. I look like pale lumpy worm. It's freaking awful. I really really really hope you don't get chemo... In fact, I'm going to talk to my sources (collective unconscious) that you don't have to. Ima put out good vibes for you that the second mass is "nothing" and that you'll be chemo free.

P.S. I have a stockpile of vicodin, darvocet and some other pain killer. I think my threshold for pain must be reeeallly high because I don't ever need the pain pills. Let me know if you need any before surgery okaaay?
