AM,

Is it possible the tech fell asleep since they scheduled your test for such a ridiculous hour?   ;)  Next time, bring some coffee for the staff!

Hope all goes well.  We'll all be thinking good thoughts and hoping to hear good news!

i hope it is what happened to my wife last year.

she had her mammogram and they called right back and said we need another one. well you ladies can imagine Nancy was off the wall upset. we went in the very next day and her Dr. could see she was quite upset. she asked why. Nancy blubbered it out between crying.

the female Dr. said OMG no!!!!!!!! the new digital imagery shows so much we just didn't get the right side view!!!!!!!!!! there's nothing there Hun...........

but four about 34 hours i had a very agitated female on my hands.......
10 mm x 2.4mm surgery date 12/03/07

The MRI went, I was injected again with more contrast.  They took another 30 minutes of pictures and Lori I actually dozed off for a bit at the end.  I'm just waiting ever so patiently for the results.  To top things off I have laryngitis and swollen glands.  Today isn't great, I'm debating on calling my family doctor.

Thank you for all of the support,
Anne Marie
