Life can go back to normal now...
Feb. 28th, 2008 11:30 amAfter my mammogram last Thursday, they found something they thought might be a lump in my breast. Or not. So they scheduled me with the high-tech equipment at the Civil Hospital this morning, to have another, closer look.
Of course I was scared. As soon as I received their phone call, I got a psychosomatic pain in my breast - only it was in the wrong breast. My subconscious doesn't even know where to put psychosomatic pain. Or maybe my breast was still sore from the previous mammogram.
Turns out the more high-tech scanning equipment I was tortured by this morning is simply a device to press harder and more specifically, and within five minutes they were able to say I have no lump and there is no problem. Which, they added cheerfully, makes it all worth the pain.
I'm still waiting for the sense of relief to kick in.
