Hopeful & 'lizbeth, thank you so very much for extracting so much valuable information...as to "wait & see, symptoms...!!" I'm going to share this article with my oncologist, he always tells me IF I can find anything that would convince him, he would be willing to take a look at it...hmmm...(yeah, right?!?!)...

I find some articles of interest from "PracticeUpdate", Oncology Daily Digest...I'm sure others of you read that as well.

Kinda off the subject...very, much...anyhow, a year ago this month is when I found my "pea"...NOT from a mammogram or ultrasound...and today I go for my yearly mammogram, the only one I still have...trust me, I've called them already & explained "where I'm coming from..."...makes no difference as we know "dense breasts"...

Okay...didn't mean to go there...I'm with you JennyB...all over this "Booster"...it just may be adding up...hmmm...
