Breast MRI
Tomorrow I head to Dana Farber for my 1st Breast MRI since I was dx in February 2008. I am feeling really good about it but I know as I start to drive down there I'll start to get a little anxious. I had a lift on my left side and since my final surgery in August it feels like shooting pains sometimes. I know its probably all in my head but I just want to know everything is all good for the rest of 2010. I'm praying for a clean slate this year. All good things need to happen for my family. I also got my period back in November (it had been gone since May of 2008). I had a horrible time and it lasted for 10 days and then returned in December not even 15 days after my last day. I just hope this month it isn't as bad. Its also confusing cause my hot flashes haven't been that much either. Not sure what this all means but I'm just trying to stay positive. Thanks for listening. Happy New Year!
