Oh my word, where has the time gone? These last few weeks have been flying by! Sorry I’ve been so out of touch, lots going on and too busy to blog…
Remember this time last year when I got one heck of a scare? Go ahead and check the link, I’ll wait.
Anyway, I changed facilities. I’m still really pissed at the other one for the insenstive way they treated me. Apparently it’s fine for the doctor to tell the patient the results, the first place just chose to do it via snail mail. Thus I chose to go to a different imaging center this time around. The new facility scheduled the mammogram and ultrasound within an hour of each other. More importantly, the doctor told me the results while I was still on the table.
“Your mammogram looks good.”
And with those words, my day got good again. I didn’t even care much that I had to wait 20 minutes in the freezing wind and snow for the bus.
I’m healthy, damn it. And once again it’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas! And Hanukkah! And Kwaanza! Or whatever the heck you celebrate!
Whew.
Now THAT is great news! I’m so glad. Celebrate, sweetie.Celebrate!
that is good news!!…it must feel so great to not have to worry and feel anxious about that anymore!!!!!!
Having been there, I am especially happy for you. (My doctor phoned me — on her day off! — when the reading was questionable.)
Happy Solstice!
Excellent news, that report on LisaB!!! (*dances in the snow* – wait! we don’t have snow…) Now! Where’s your glasses?
LisaB, such great news. Good to be reading you again (it’s been a long time).

Welcome back cookie!! We missed ya!
hehe I’m just glad I don’t have to go thru those things… eeeep!!
Sending huhgs!
For a lot of women those are some of the best words to hear.
Yeah. Healthscaressuck.
I jumped for joy when my pap smear came out okay ! Wait does this mean you’re 40 or over if you’re getting mammograms??
From Lisa B: I’m so not discussing my age! FYI, doctors recommend that women begin having mammograms at age 35. Time for yours yet?
Now, THAT’s how to handle that crap! Not making patients stew while someone does her best to translate doctorese into readable English via transcription, then wait while the letter gets to you.
Yay for good news!!!!! Happy Holidays for sure!
And we are so grateful to have you Lisa! YOU ROCK!
Always good to know you’re around and planning on keeping yourself around!
You guys are awesome
Let’s hear it for healthy boobs!
Yay for healthy boobies! And other body parts too ;-D Cheers, Miss Lisa!
Good for you. I am glad you switched! Now enjoy the good news!
Congrats!! Glad to hear that you got some good news. Sorry about waiting 20 minutes for the bus, though…
Glad you got through the mammogram. I absolutely hate those things. I think we should be paid to have them rather than vice versa.
Great news, Lisa! I know that feeling (having been down the road of the ultrasound & biopsy). It’s always a huge relief to 1) find the right provider who’ll take care of *all* your needs (including emotional) and 2) get the desired result. Congratulations.
Yay Lisa! Great to hear it!
Yay! Glad you’re OK. Most of my docs will give results right away. If not, they call and leave a message when they come in for you to call the doc and get results over the phone. That last place is just lazy.
A clean bill of health is always something to celebrate! Congratulations! I’m happy that you’ll be celebrating the holidays healthy as a horse! Let’s hope it continues with you all through the new year!
Phew. Those are sweet words, are they not?
I’m really happy for you. And I can SOOOO relate! I was squished last week, but thank goodness they sent me the results within a couple of days. Let’s go out and be healthy together! (Or at least when I get back.) xox
Yeay! Nothing like good health news to put all your other woes into perspective. Wopee!
Wait a minute. Your mammogram looks good. I can understand that: they all do. How does the breast look?
I hope you went out and bought something cute to celebrate. Or had a really good meal. Or both.
Having had a scare a few weeks ago myself, and more than a scare — a reality — for a girlfriend, count your blessings, hug the dog and tell your cool mom that you love her. And then have a great Christmas! (new year, too, while we’re at it…)
HAVE A COOL WEEKEND LISA B!
I’m late to the party but so glad to hear all’s well healthwise!
