I had my first mammogram on Monday. It showed two areas that they rated a 4out of 5 (thus requiring biopsy) in my left breast. They are very small areas. I saw the surgeon today and the biopsys are scheduled for Monday. I realize it's only about a 1/5 chance that they are anything... BUT that's still 1 out of 5 (which is IMO high). I'm scared to say the least.

I could use some feedback from ladies who have been through this before and come out the other side. I look at a few folks on here like Mrs. Alura and what Jnbsmokin posted yesterday and I think I'm pretty lucky so far... but it also scares me to think I could be facing what they've dealt with.

We are doing a Meetup this weekend in Nash and to be honest I'm so not into the idea, but I'm hoping that if we go I can put it out of my mind for a bit and just "escape" for a while.

The worst part is that what led to me having the mammogram was a complaint of pains in my chest (on the other side)... mainly due to stress from a lot of other things going on. So as if I needed more stress, and now I have it.
