ME TOO! Mine probably saved my life! That and regular self-examination! I thought I was too young to have to worry about this stuff! It's all worth it!
OK........I will tell you all what I went through..about 6 years ago:
Went for a regular pelvic & doc talked me into a mammogram.
So I went & did it..ugh!
$ days later the doc calls & wants me in his office.
I FREAKED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
But I went, dry eyed...and he set me up for a stereo-toptic biopsy as he had found "a mass"
So I went, and they checked me in, down a corridor, outside the hospital & around back was parked a semi-trailer for radioligy.
It involved me laying down on a table on my tummy, and holes for the girls.
The radiological team is beneath, and numbs the girls in question...and then through the computer help, sets up a 3D screen of the girls.
At that time the team can "see" the mass & take a sample.
They did, and inserted a chip so's they can watch the area forvermore, from outer space.
A week later the biopsy taken was found benign...and I am still watched like a clock.
So, Tuesday I go in again to get it looked at all over again.
The computer chip inserted in the girls gives the team an exact placement of where the "place" was.........so I am on """watch"""
Isn't technology something!
