The biopsy March 6, 2012

I am new at blogging. A great friend of mine suggested I blog my journey with breast cancer.
On January 26, 2012, I had a mammogram after finding a lump. The radiologist said I had cancer.
Since I am uninsured and unemployed, I called the most famous and local treatment center. They referred me to a program - through the state of California. Through this service, I received a biopsy on March 6, 2012, at the treatment center. I don't know if I can put the actual names of places and services.

The biopsy to my surprise and great relief, did not hurt. I worked myself up to a dental appointment frenzy and it was more like getting a haircut. The people in the treatment center walked me through the procedure. I had taken the time to look it up and review video's for the procedure before hand. I felt prepared and it wasn't a bad experience. I even got to see the biopsied chunks of my tumor. Looked like little rectangle chunks of Udon but short and skinny, there was a little white at one side and brown for the rest.

Now I wait 72-hours to get the pathology report from my Dr. My Dr. is really a good person. I was very happy to meet him and impressed by his great brain and forthright manner. He actually calls me at home to advise me. Anyway, I await the pathology results prior to treatment.  More blog later.
