More waiting...

Getting out of bed was difficult today... I just don't want to face what lies before me...

It is the week for appointments... Being a female of a certain age, it seems that I am in and out of the Doctors for one reason or another... A lot... Earlier this week, it was to see the breast surgeon, who is asking for an MRI before he goes in for a biopsy.

(He says that he does not want to drive blind and would rather have a map as to where he should biopsy, rather than run the high risk of getting a false negative.)

And since he found a secondary area that concerns him... Well... Let's just say that I really like this Doctor and appreciate that he does not prefer the quick cut and see method... I'd rather really know what we are facing...

We are now waiting, again, to see if I am going to get the tests approved through the program that I am on... Otherwise, it is about $3,000 out of my pocket for the test and biopsies...

(What was that saying about getting water from a stone? Yup, if I have to, I will make that saying untrue... Somehow...)
