Cat Forum / Cat Anecdotes / February 2008Can i ask for Purrs, please
Its been a week of medical stress. I have to have a mammogram (in a fortnight, the earliest available), and Joel.... well, he is being sent to a specialist too, so urgently, we got an apointment *the next day* (ie, tomorrow morning). I am worried stupid for the both of us. Don't usually ask for purrs, but I think I'm about to lose it. We don't even mention whats going on at work. Thanks guys, your da bomb!

Are you sure your mammogram isn't just routine? You must be getting close enough to the age where a baseline is needed. I don't know when women start in Australia - in California, they start around 40. At least, I was in my early 40s when I got my first one. The urgency of Joel's appointment certainly sounds worrisome - purrs that it turns out to be nothing. For both of you!

At least, > I was in my early 40s when I got my first one. Absolutely sure. I made the apointment with my GP after feeling 'weird' in that area, and he sent me off to the mammogram. *That* is why I am worried. Free screenings happen here after 50. I will pay near $180 to get this done, and will be able to claim some of it back from Medicare. Its still alot of cash to come up with, but the possibel implications of waiting till I can 'afford' it make me even more terrified. This, after all, is what credit cards were invented for. > The urgency of Joel's appointment certainly sounds worrisome - purrs > that it turns out to be nothing. For both of you! Yah. Has me worried too. Him being the man, though, won't talk about it much. Yowie Vicki, A few years ago, I found a lump in my breast and was scared to death. It turned out to be nothing. I think in the vast majority of cases, what we find and then have scanned turns out to be nothing. But Doctors, rightly so, continue to send us for non-routine scans because just often enough it is something. For right now, tell yourself that the chances that it is something cancerous are small and you are just checking it out. When you get the results and know what you are dealing with, THEN you can worry if you need to. For now, there is nothing you can accomplish with worry. It won't change the results and there are no actions you can take with your worry energy. Put your energy into thinking positive and taking care of yourself. You can't go wrong with that. It isn't like you are not paying attention to what may be wrong, but you have done all you can at the moment. Now just take care of yourself in nice ways.
