Hi everyone.
I went for my Pap and breast exam last Friday. I won't know on the pap for a few days, but breast exam seemed ok.
I go for my Mammo today. My BC breast is still sore and tender. I have about 20 surgical clips in there, so I'm not looking forward to getting it squeezed.
I'm going to have them do the other breast first and if they don't think they can do the BC breast without hurting me, I'm going to tell I'll opt for an MRI of that breast.
Tomorrow I get an echo to check the LVEF. I opted for that in place of a MUGA. Is there anything I need to tell them to make sure they get the LVEF percentage?
My PCP also wants me to have a chemical stress test. My BP has been running high, but I've been having some pain (legs, hips, chest scar areas).
So, if you have any tips, let me know.
Thanks :)
