So I didn't get away quite as easily as I had hoped they did a fine needle aspiration (biopsy) I was so sure that they would lok at the ultra sound and say no further action required!
I am now a little sad but trying to 'not borrow trouble!' - its hard!
I am now back up in Port Hedland with my husband and kids and trying hard to be upbeat and positive - hoefully I will get the results tomorrow arvo or Friday.
I hate how fragile life seems and how easy it is to have the carpet pulled out......
Fingers crossed
