One for the girls

[The Missus]

Yes , Good Luck Stef.
Remember too - all those of you who are over 50 - have the mammogram when you are offered it. Its every three years, its a bit uncomfortable but it saves lives.

Hope it went as well as it can today Stef.

[OneHillWonder]

Yes hope it went ok.

[Stef F]

Thanks guys and girls.

Thanks for all your support.

I didn't have the treatment today; on inspection it turns out that it needs to be done under a general anasthetic as there is quite a lot to remove. I've been advised they'll be able to do a better job in theatre.

So it's back on the waiting list for now. Fingers crossed for another cancellation - I want this over and done with as quickly as possible.

I work for the NHS and to be honest get a little tired of the constant criticism NHS staff receive when they work in really difficult circumstances and under a lot of pressure .....this was part of the reason why when i recently had a health scare I wanted to tell friends and family about how impressed I was with the efficient and speedy assessment I received at our local breast clinic...i was seen within a week and the staff were ultra sensitive and professional and to be honest i didn't find the mammogram half as bad as I thought it would be...thankfully it was a false alarm and i am fine but i too would also urge others to go and get checked out .......this thread has reminded me of the other test i shud do too so thank you and hope it all goes well

Fingers crossed Stef

Mrs Bother reckons she doesn't mind the tests (but she does fancy the Doc )
